A series of warnings have been issued to Irish consumers as a number of products sold in shops, supermarkets and online were recalled this week over safety fears.

Each week, product safety officers from the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) conduct inspections of various products sold in Ireland to ensure they meet safety standards.

These inspections can be unannounced and cover a range of products, including toys, electrical goods, and gas appliances.

Where products fail to meet safety standards, CCPC officers use their statutory powers to ensure they are removed from shelves to protect consumers and prevent further risk.

This week, the CCPC announced that a number of popular items purchased by Irish shoppers online have been recalled over safety fears, including chargers and children’s toys. You can find the full list of items which were recalled below.

Chargers sold on Shein

A number of chargers sold on Shein have been recalled due to the risk of electric shock, fire and injury.

The CCPC announced on Tuesday that online marketplace Shein has issued a recall for eight different chargers sold by third-party sellers on the platform to customers in Ireland.

According to the consumer watchdog, the products present a risk of electric shock, fire and injury. The products have poor insulation, lack of thermal protection, faulty earthing, and missing or incorrect ratings. The affected product details can be found below:

The incubation period (time between initial infection and first symptoms appearing) is on average three weeks but can range between three and 70 days.”
