Hair drier
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
A Sokany hair dryer model RCY-1100W (also labeled SM-2000 on packaging) with a silver metal cover and black plastic handle poses serious safety risks. The mains cable is not properly secured to its terminals—only soldering holds it in place—which means that if internal heating elements break, they can touch metal parts and cause electric shock. Additionally, the product can overheat and create a fire hazard because it lacks adequate thermal protection. The hair dryer does not meet European safety standards required by the Low Voltage Directive and standard EN 60335.
Authorities have ordered the product withdrawn from the market and recalled from consumers. The record does not specify what affected consumers should do to return the product or obtain a remedy.
