The recalled air purifiers were manufactured prior to July 2025 and can be identified by a serial number beginning with “BN.” Further identifying details, including the model number, date code, and serial number, are located on a label on the bottom of the unit. The implicated devices were available for purchase online through Amazon.com, Shopify.com, TEMU.com, and TikTok.com between September 2024 and June 2025, with prices ranging from $80 to $134. Airova, Inc., based in Newark, California, is the importer of these products.

The company has reported receiving 37 incidents involving the air purifiers overheating.
