Hazard
The product presents a high risk of injuries as the external build quality is poor and multiple moving parts can be accessed by hand. Should the user pick up the unit whilst in use they could trap their finger in moving parts and injure themselves. Additionally, the product's plug face did not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363 because the product had an US style plug face. The instruction manual was missing some of the required information.
The product does not meet the requirements of the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 or the Plugs & Sockets (Safety) Regulations 1994
Corrective action
