What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a risk-of-harm product recall where foreign object contamination (stainless steel dust/flakes and plastic shreds) poses potential injury or choking hazard, though no illnesses or injuries have been reported in the source. FDA Class II classification applies, but without hospitalization reports, this scores as High rather than Severe.
