An ice maker sold at Amazon has been recalled. It can mix metal shards with your ice
About 8,800 countertop ice makers have been recalled because nobody wants broken pieces of metal in their ice.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said of the Gevi Household Countertop Nugget Ice Makers: “The metal blades of the auger of the ice maker can break, resulting in small pieces of metal going into the ice basket, posing a laceration hazard.”
And the CPSC recall notice says that distributor Far Success Trading Limited knows about the blades breaking and going into the ice basket 263 times.
The recalled Gevi Household Countertop Nugget Ice Makers have model No. GIMN-1102, a date code of before June 1, 2022, and were sold only through Amazon. They were sold in black, white and blue.
Far Success is offering replacement ice makers. Contact Far Success for instructions on taking the ice maker apart, then tossing it in the trash. Send the Gevi ice maker distributor a photo of the product label either to the company website or replacement@gevi.com.
