Lasko Box Fan Recall Issued After Fires Reported March 25, 2011 Staff Writers Add Your Comments Nearly 5 million box fans sold under the “Lasko” and “Galaxy” brand names have been recalled after several fires were traced back to the fans’ motors. The box fan recall was announced on March 24 by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) after Lasko Products Inc., the manufacturer, indicated that at least seven reports of fire have been associated with the fans, including a barn fire and two house fires that caused extensive property damage. The CPSC recall notice states that the fires are likely the result of an electrical failure in the fans’ motors which constitutes a fire hazard for consumers.

Learn More SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION The fan recall affects about 4.8 million Lasko box fans with model numbers 3720, 2723 and 3733, as well as Galaxy box fans with model number 4733. The model numbers are located on the bottom of the fans. All of the affected fans will have a date of 2002-03 or 2003-04 stamped on the bottom of the metal frame. “Lasko” or “Galaxy” will be on the front fan plate. The fans were sold as mass merchandisers nationwide from July 2002 through December 2005 for about $12 to $15. This is the second major Lasko recall this year. In early February the company had to recall about 110,000 portable space heaters. Like the fans, those heaters had electrical defects which turned them into a fire hazard. There were dozens of reports of fires in connection with the recalled heaters. The CPSC recommends that consumers immediately stop using the fans and contact Lasko to receive a free fused plug safety adapter. Consumers with questions can call Lasko at 1-877-445-1314 or visit their website at www.laskoproducts.com.

One I purchased from Walmart not too long ago, the switch quit. Prior to quitting, there was an occasional electrical smell. First two of the settings on the 3 spd fan quit and not too long after, the final High setting quit. Lasko has done ZERO to be helpful except to say the date stamped on the bottom exceeds their 1 year courtesy replacement. They didn’t acknowledge the electrical smell or the switch quitting even though the fan still looks brand new. Because I’m an allergy sufferer, I said if they would offer a cut rate (due to the potential fire hazard and loss taken on that fan), on their filtered box fan I would purchase it. They didn’t acknowledge that either. Now I am left to file a consumer complaint with the state and federal consumer safety commission and the AG’s because Lasko should take responsibility plus the public has a right to know. Here’s the response I received from Lasko: “Thank you for your reply and we apologize for any inconvenience you may have encountered with the unit. As a clarifier, your model B20308 is not currently and has not been subjected to any recalls in the past. ” and “it appears that at this time your product would be outside of any replacement options we can offer. ” Zero resolve on Lasko’s part. Laura August 10, 2023 An older lasko wind machine style fan shorted out and caused the house fire that left three families homeless June 2nd 2023 Merrie August 29, 2015 Laurie, Did you find out anything? We had a fire on 7.14.15 and would like to pursue for damages also. I’m wondering what you may have found out. laurie July 25, 2015 Hi john and helen. I have had the same issue with a fan. I am hoping to sue for damages as well. Can you guys update me on how your lawsuit went? John July 22, 2013 Our house burned down on sept 11th 2012 due to a Lasko box fan. State Farm is pursuing Lasko for all of our damages. I need to find someone who will represent us for all the things that cant be paid for. we had injuries and lost work and we are just now getting back in our home. To top it off the fire restoration company that was holding all of our things that were saved in the Lasko fire burned to the ground 3 weeks before we were to move back in. We lost everything in this chain of events because of a cheep box fan. Helen February 1, 2013 My mother -inlaws house burned down in Nov. 2012 because of Lasko box fan and we are still waiting for something to be done. They just sent their inspector out so nothing can be done to the house because they are stalling. They knew about their unsafe fans and didn’t do anything to it destroyed peoples lives. Thank God no one was hurt! Monica April 19, 2012 I don’t understand why they waited so long to make a recall when my house burned down in January more than two years ago. My home burned in the middle of the night while we were all sleeping because of a Lasko box fan. My family and I made it out safetly with nothing but the clothes on our backs and we are still dealing with the desvastation it caused. Laurie March 25, 2011 I’m relieved to see that not just the box fans, but also portable space heaters are being recalled. I have had a long-standing campaign going on through my website, www.firesafetyinbarns.com, to have barn owners and managers stop using any and all residential box fans in their facilities. And, every winter the number of confined animals killed in barn fires due to the misuse or unattendance while in use, of portable heaters, rises dramatically. I maintain a running chart of these losses on the website. Misuse of electrical appliances and malfunctioning electrical equipment are the major causes of preventable fires in livestock facilities, including the massive lives lost in factory fires.
