Shoppers can find ongoing product recalls on the supermarket’s website
Sainsbury’s has urgently recalled three commonly used household items which the retailer has sold throughout its stores.
The household appliances have been urgently recalled due to worries that the items could pose a fire risk, MyLondon reports.
Customers are advised to check if the appliances they have purchased are impacted by the recall and if they are, customers are likely able to return them to their local Sainsbury’s store.

Nutribullet Go blender
Among the recalled items is the ‘Nutribullet Go’ rechargeable blender after the manufacturer informed Sainsbury’s specific units of its model NGB-100 are unfit for purpose.
The recall of the item comes primarily due to concerns that a battery defect in the model could overheat while charging and could pose a potential fire risk.

“Please stop using the item immediately, and check if you have an affected product by locating the serial number on the base of the blender.”
