What to do now

SHTALHST Mini Fridge sold on Amazon could overheat or catch fire.

  1. Unplug it and do not charge it again.
  2. Store it away from anything that burns until you can return or dispose of it. Batteries should go to a battery recycling point, not the household bin.
  3. Because the product was found unsafe on an online marketplace, use the platform’s order page to contact the seller.
  4. Report it to Trading Standards through the Citizens Advice consumer service if the seller does not respond.

Why it matters. Faulty chargers, batteries and appliances are a common cause of house fires. A fire can start while the product is charging or switched on and nobody is watching.
