What’s the Problem?
This recall affects all Meic AC power adapters sold with Brother AirSure DF-2 Dynamic Filtration Tabletop Air Purifiers, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission [1].
“The Meic AC power adapter casing can break while the adapter is being plugged into or removed from an electrical outlet, exposing its metal prongs, posing electrical shock and electrocution hazards,” CPSC said. “The company has received at least one report of an incident of the adapter breaking and exposing its metal prongs.”
The recalled power adapters are black and have the name “Meic” printed in white on the side of the adapter. “Brother” and “DF-2” are printed on the front of the air purifier.
Affected Meic Power Adapters were sold online from March 2022 through September 2022 for about $130 for the AirSure DF-2 Dynamic Filtration Tabletop Air Purifier with the AC adapter.
If you purchased a Meic Power Adapter that is affected by this recall, you should stop using it immediately and contact Brother for a free replacement AC power adapter and instructions on how to return the Meic AC power adapter.
