Description:

WASHINGTON, DC - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using Sperax Walking Pads and Treadmills immediately because they pose fall, burn and fire hazards to consumers. Affected models include Pro, Q1, RM-01 and RM-02.

The products can suddenly and unexpectedly change speeds and come to an abrupt stop, causing consumers to lose their balance, fall, and suffer serious injuries. CPSC is aware of 201 reports of uncontrollable speed, abrupt stops and similar stability-related failures, resulting in at least 66 falls or injuries, including at least one concussion that required medical attention.

Additionally, CPSC is aware of 573 reports of overheating, fires and other thermal incidents, including four reports of minor burns.

The importer Quanzhou Wentelai Import and Export Trading Co., Ltd., d/b/a Sperax, has refused to agree to an acceptable recall.

The walking pads and treadmills were marketed and sold under the Sperax brand name and are black with red trim. The model number is located on a label near the power switch.

The walking pads and treadmills were sold online via e-commerce platforms, including Amazon.com, Walmart.com, NewEgg.com and eBay.com.

The products were manufactured in China.

CPSC urges consumers to stop using the walking pads and treadmills immediately and dispose of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous products.

About the U.S. CPSC

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.

Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
