The air fryers were sold mostly on Amazon.
It’s no secret that we’re in the midst of an air fryer craze. According to CNBC, almost 60% of U.S. households have air fryers. And, hey, we’re not fighting it. The countertop convection ovens make full-blown air-fryer dinners in a matter of minutes.
However, that doesn’t mean air fryers always work perfectly. Like all appliances, air fryers can malfunction. And if your air fryer happens to be a certain Secura air fryer, you may have experienced this firsthand. So far there have been nine reports of Secura air fryers catching fire, burning and smoking. Yikes—that’s definitely cause for a recall.
