Power XL Dual Basket Air Fryer Burn Lawsuits

Urgent Recall of PowerXL Dual Basket Air Fryers by Empower Brands Over Burn Hazards

In a recent development that has alarmed consumers, Empower Brands has issued a recall for approximately 319,000 units of its PowerXL™ DUAF-10 and DUAF-005 Vortex Dual-Basket Air Fryers. This recall, dated December 14, 2023, comes in the wake of reports that the plastic U-Channel connector, designed to combine the two food baskets inside the air fryers, can break during use, posing a significant burn hazard. This issue necessitates immediate attention from consumers who have purchased these models.

The recalled air fryers, available in black or cinnamon colors, are distinct in their dual-basket design which offers the option to be used as one large single basket. The 10-quart DUAF-10 model and the 9-quart DUAF-005 model, both egg-shaped, vary slightly in dimensions and weight. Each unit has a silver label marked “PowerXL” and a white label on the bottom or power cord listing the model number. Empower Brands has urged consumers to cease using the recalled products immediately and contact the company for a full refund.

The urgency of this recall is underscored by the 41 reports received by the firm regarding the product’s breakage during use, including three incidents where users suffered burns. The air fryers were sold at prominent retailers such as Target, Walmart, and Kohls, and were also available online on their respective websites, as well as other sites, from August 2021 through October 2023, with prices ranging between $60 and $190 depending on the model.

For individuals who have experienced burns or other injuries due to the malfunctioning of these air fryers, legal action is an option worth considering. Filing a product liability lawsuit enables victims to seek compensation for their injuries and damages. The lawsuit process entails several crucial steps, starting with the filing of a complaint that establishes the basis for the claim. This is followed by the discovery phase, where both parties gather evidence. In some cases, the lawsuit may advance to a trial, where the evidence is presented and a verdict is reached.

Having an attorney is essential in navigating the complexities of a product liability lawsuit. Experienced lawyers can offer invaluable guidance, ensuring that all legal requirements are met and the victim’s case is strongly represented. They play a critical role in the gathering of evidence, negotiation of settlements, and courtroom representation. In these lawsuits, victims can seek compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages due to injury, and in some instances, punitive damages.

I’m a 9/11 first responder, and I can honestly say that Parker Waichman made me feel like they had my best interest in my VCF case. Ms Candalino & Ms Viti are top notch in my book.
