Date: November 9, 2004
Company: Family Dollar Stores, Peebles Inc., and Le Roux
Status: Ongoing
Source: CPSC

What You Should Do

Stop using this product immediately. Do not consume, use, or distribute it.

Consumers should stop using the electric blankets immediately and destroy the controller and blanket. The firm is out of business, and a remedy is no longer available.

Affected Products

The recalled automatic warming blankets were sold in blue or beige colors under the Bilt-Safe and Comfort Max brand names and came in sizes to fit all mattresses. The temperature controller is removable and plugs into a module at the bottom of the blanket. The recalled units have the following model numbers, which are located on a tag sewn to the blanket: BST-03-A-F, BST-03-A-K, BST-03-A-Q, and BST-03-A-T.

Why Was This Recalled?

When the temperature controller on the blanket is reset multiple times or the blanket is folded or covered with additional blankets, the blanket can overheat. This can result in smoldering and melting, posing a burn hazard to consumers.

Where Was This Sold?

Distribution information not available.
