Urgent Recall Issued for HEZI Brand Power Strips Due to Electrocution Risk

Approximately 1,320 HEZI brand power strips have been recalled due to a significant safety hazard, according to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The recalled power strips pose a serious risk of electrocution, potentially leading to severe injury or death. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged to stop using them immediately and seek a full refund.

The HEZI brand power strips in question feature a gray or yellow metal enclosure and are equipped with eight receptacles made of black plastic. A power and circuit breaker switch is located at the end of the metal enclosure, nearest to the power cord. The critical safety concern stems from the ungrounded metal enclosure, which can become energized and present an electrocution hazard.

These power strips were sold online through platforms including Amazon.com, Ebay.com, Kmart.com, and Sears.com. The affected products were available for purchase between May 2024 and October 2025, with prices ranging from approximately $35 to $56. The manufacturer of these power strips is Dongguan Keben Electrical Appliance Co Ltd, located in China, and the importer is Shenzhenshihezijiajuyongpinyongsi, also known as HEZI HOME, also based in China.

Consumers who possess one of the recalled HEZI brand power strips should immediately discontinue its use. To receive a full refund, individuals are instructed to contact HEZI HOME directly.
