Snow Joe is recalling more than 26,000 of its Sun Joe Cordless Lawn Mowers in the United States and Canada as the mower blade can detach unexpectedly, posing a laceration hazard.
The company posted the recall notice Sept. 1 to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission website.
The recall applies to Sun Joe Cordless Lawn Mowers models 24V-X2-17LM and 24V-X2-17LM-CT, which have blades that can detach unexpectedly.
“Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled lawn mowers and contact Snow Joe for instructions on how to determine whether their lawn mower is included in the recall and if so, instructions on how to inspect and secure the lawn mower blade,” the recall states.
About 26,300 of the mowers are being recalled in the United States, and about 350 in Canada.
According to the recall, the firm has received 31 reports of either the blade or the bolt securing the blade on the recalled lawn mowers detaching. No injuries have been reported so far.
The company is not currently facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes end in class action lawsuits.
Sun Joe lawn mowers were sold nationwide
The mowers were sold online at www.amazon.com, www.homedepot.com, www.walmart.com and www.snowjoe.com and in hardware, electronics and department stores nationwide from June 2020 through July 2022 for between $190 and $350.
They can be identified as Snow Joe is printed on the side of the mowers and on the mulching bag.
The recalled 48-volt mowers have a 17-inch cutting width. They are light green and black in color, measure 44 inches tall by 19.5 inches wide and weigh about 35 pounds. The model and serial numbers can be found on the white label on the ejector flap.
The news comes after MTD Products Inc. recalled Craftsman 30” Mini and Troy-Bilt TB30 riding lawn mowers that can pose a low-speed crash hazard after failing to brake.
