Canadian retailers recall four products over safety concerns

Consumers are being urged to discontinue use of the recalled items immediately. The first recall involves the Baby Brezza SuperFast Sterilizer Dryer (model number BRZ0083, UPC 886267008313). Health Canada reports the device may overheat during use, creating a fire and burn risk. These sterilizers were sold between September 2023 and November 2026. To date, 20 incidents of overheating and melting have been reported in Canada, out of approximately 6,001 units sold. The company reports no injuries, and similar incidents (32) have been reported in the United States, also without injury.

EI Brand Management Inc., the Quebec-based importer, is offering free replacements. Consumers can contact them at service@elfe.ca or through their website.

Another recall affects Bose S1 Pro and S1 Pro+ System Battery Packs. Health Canada’s notice states that continued use of these battery packs can expose lithium-ion cells to damaging conditions, posing a fire or burn risk. The affected battery packs have serial numbers beginning with specific prefixes and were sold between April 2020 and July 2026. While no incidents have been reported in Canada as of October 5th, seven incidents have occurred globally. Over 35,000 units were sold in Canada and nearly 635,000 in the United States. Consumers are advised to remove and stop using the battery packs and can contact Bose Corporation at 1-800-869-2114 or through their website for a replacement.

Finally, Newdery Power Banks, model ZHX-PB22, are being recalled due to a risk of battery explosion or ignition.
