October 23, 2025: CPSC and Lifepro Announce the Recall

On October 23, 2025, Lifepro Fitness, working with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, announced recall number 26-036 for the Bioremedy Infrared Sauna Blankets, citing overheating in the grey-faced control pad that can burn users [1]. Consumers can file a free replacement claim online with Lifepro under this voluntary recall, which the company is handling without a mandatory CPSC order.

Which Infrared Sauna Blankets Are Affected?

The recall covers seven grey-faced Bioremedy Infrared Sauna Blanket models, identified by the model numbers, sizes, and colors listed below:

• Seven model numbers are recalled: LP-BRMDYL-BLK, LP-BRMDYL-GRY, LP-BRMDYR-BLK, LP-BRMDYR-GRY, LP-BRMDYR-BLU, LP-BRMDYR-PNK, and LP-BRMDYR-PRPL. Each one has a grey-faced control pad.
• Recalled blankets come in two sizes, 31 by 71 inches (regular) and 36 by 76 inches (large), and four colors: black, grey, pink, and purple
• Some recalled units have serial numbers beginning with the letters CVNH, printed with “Lifepro” and the model number on the blanket and the controller [2]

Check the front of your blanket and the controller for the model number. Do this even if you are not sure, since Lifepro sold every affected model under the same general product name.

Why Were the Infrared Sauna Blankets Recalled?

The Bioremedy Infrared Sauna Blankets were recalled because their grey-faced control pad can overheat, creating a burn hazard. Lifepro Fitness imports and sells the blankets from Howell, New Jersey. In its own recall materials, Lifepro describes the same defect as a potential fire hazard rather than only a burn hazard. Lifepro voluntarily recalled the blankets in cooperation with the CPSC rather than waiting for a mandatory order. The recall does not identify a specific manufacturing or design defect beyond the overheating hazard already described in the notice. Lifepro sold the affected blankets from September 2022 through June 2025, so the hazard could reach any blanket bought during that period.

Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses

Lifepro has received 65 reports of the recalled sauna blankets overheating, including 32 reports of burn injuries, according to the CPSC notice. The notice does not report any deaths connected to the blankets. These figures reflect reports the firm received before the October 23, 2025 recall date. They are not confirmed medical findings that the product caused every reported burn. The reporting period and any later updates are not stated in the notice. Anyone who was burned while using a Bioremedy Infrared Sauna Blanket can report the incident to the CPSC. The blankets were sold only online, through Lifepro.com, Amazon, Walmart, QVC, and Dick’s Sporting Goods.

What Should Consumers Do?

Consumers who own a recalled Bioremedy Infrared Sauna Blanket should take the following steps to stay safe and process a claim:

1. Stop using the sauna blanket immediately and unplug it from the wall outlet to prevent further overheating.
2. Cut the power cord to the remote control so the blanket cannot be reconnected before you file a claim.
3. File a free replacement claim online with Lifepro, including photos of the blanket, the remote control, and the cut power cord.
4. Provide proof of purchase or a serial number when you file your claim to help Lifepro confirm the product.
5. Contact Lifepro toll-free at 888-491-1690 or recalls@lifeprofitness.com with questions. Report a burn injury to the CPSC at 800-638-2772 or through SaferProducts.gov [3].
6. Dispose of the recalled blanket according to local waste and recycling regulations once you receive your replacement.

Legal Options

Burn injuries reported after a product recall may support a product-liability claim, but a recall does not automatically establish liability or eligibility for compensation. No lawsuit has been filed against Lifepro Fitness over this recall. Anyone burned by a recalled sauna blanket can speak with a product-liability lawsuit attorney about their options before deciding whether to pursue a claim.

Filing Deadlines

Deadlines for filing a product-injury claim come from state law rather than from this recall, and the recall notice does not state an exact time limit. The clock often starts when the injury happened, though some states start it when a doctor connects the burn to the blanket instead. A missed deadline can end an otherwise strong claim, so it helps to speak with a lawyer before too much time passes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is This Recall a Class Action or Multidistrict Litigation?

No, this recall has not become a class action or multidistrict litigation. The U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation, which consolidates similar lawsuits filed in different courts before one judge, has not opened a case for this product, so a claim today would be filed individually.

How Long Will It Take to Get My Replacement Sauna Blanket?

Most replacement claims for the Bioremedy Infrared Sauna Blanket recall are fulfilled within four weeks of Lifepro receiving a complete submission. If replacement blankets are temporarily unavailable, Lifepro places approved claims on a waitlist until new units are ready to ship.

Is the Current BioRemedy Plus Sauna Blanket Also Recalled?

No, the current BioRemedy Plus sauna blanket is not part of this recall. It uses a black-faced remote control rather than the grey-faced control pad linked to the overheating reports. Lifepro ships it as the free replacement for recalled units.

Where Are the Recalled Sauna Blankets Made?

The recalled Bioremedy Infrared Sauna Blankets were manufactured in China and imported by Lifepro Fitness of Howell, New Jersey, according to the CPSC notice. Where a blanket was made does not affect whether it falls under the recall. Check the model number instead.

What Do I Need If I Bought My Sauna Blanket on Amazon?

If you bought your recalled sauna blanket on Amazon, you will need to provide a copy of your invoice or order confirmation when you file a claim. If you do not have it, contact Lifepro directly, and the company says it will work with you to process your claim.

Can I File a Lawsuit over a Burn Injury from a Sauna Blanket?

You may be able to file a lawsuit over a burn injury from a sauna blanket, though a recall alone does not establish liability. A free case review can look at when your injury happened, the care you received, and whether you kept the blanket and its packaging.
