The product overheats and could burst into flames during use causing burns to the scalp, head and hands and leaving live parts accessible that could lead to an electric shock if touched by users. The product does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335.

The electric blanket can be connected directly to the power supply without the control unit. If used in this way, the electric blanket will overheat in the absence of a thermostat and a vulnerable person could suffer heatstroke. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335.

The electrical insulation is not adequate and accessible parts could become live. In addition, the blades are not adequately protected by the grille. Fingers can be caught between the grille guard and the rotating blade, causing cuts or fractures. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335.

The electrical insulation is inadequate: there is access to metal parts of the brush separated from live parts by basic insulation and the dimensions of the plug fuse are not correct. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335 and the relevant national standard BS1363.

The casing of the product does not have sufficient mechanical strength which could lead to live parts becoming accessible. It is possible to touch the live parts of pins of the plug when inserting or removing the device from the mains socket. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60335.

The insulation between the primary and secondary circuits is not sufficient, which may cause an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 60950.

There is no earth conductor which could lead to a risk of electric shock if an appliance which should be earthed was connected.

It is possible to insert one pin of a plug in one hole of the live socket while the other live pin of the plug remains accessible. If the user touches the live accessible pin they would get an electric shock.

The pressure inside the heater may build up which could result in the heater developing a crack through which steam or antifreeze could escape causing burns to the user. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.

The cable anchorage is not secure and the cable can detach leaving live parts accessible. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive and the relevant European standard EN 61242.
