What happened

Lifesmart is recalling Lifepro brand portable infrared quartz space heaters, models LS-IQH-DMICRO and LS-IQH-MICRO, due to an electrical shock hazard. The screws that attach the back plate to the heater are too short, which can cause the back plate to detach when the heater is removed from the electrical outlet. The recalled heaters are approximately 6½ inches tall by 5 inches wide by 3¾ inches deep, made of black plastic with a three-prong plug built into the back. Model LS-IQH-DMICRO is a 400-watt heater with a digital display on top, while model LS-IQH-MICRO is a 450-watt heater with no display. The model name and wattage are printed on a label on the back of each heater.

Because Lifesmart is no longer in business, no remedy is available for this recall. Consumers who own one of these recalled heaters should destroy and dispose of the product.
