LG Is Recalling 500,000 Of These Stoves After Dozens Of Burn Incidents
LG Electronics has just joined a line of 2025 recalls, following 17,000 pounds of sausage from DJ's Boudain, Walmart's broccoli, and more. After a series of fires, LG recalled 500,000 ranges — specifically, the Slide-In Ranges and Freestanding Ranges. According to a notice by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), these fires have caused injuries to both people and pets, as well as property damage. Three of the fires even led to the death of a pet.
The accidents were due to the front-mounted knobs, which can easily turn by accident — the CPSC has reported 86 instances of this happening. Further, there have been 28 fires involving these ranges, leading to eight minor injuries and property damage adding up to over $340,000.
These stoves were sold nationwide from 2015 to January 2025 at appliance stores including Best Buy, Home Depot, Costco, Lowe's, and LG's website. You can check the model and serial numbers of the ranges involved by reading the CPSC recall notice.

If your stove is one of the LG ranges being recalled, the CPSC encourages you to "contact LG for a free warning label and placement instructions." The label includes instructions on how to use the Lock Out/Control Lock function to prevent accidentally turning out the range when you're not using it. You can also watch a video detailing how to do this.
Finally, the CPSC has encouraged consumers to be cautious with the ranges — specifically, "to keep children and pets away from the knobs, to check the range knobs to ensure they are off before leaving home or going to bed, and not to leave objects on the range when the range is not in use." It's important to keep all of this in mind, as burns are one of the most common kitchen injuries.

Gov. Kathy Hochul's No. 2 pushed to resign after he announces he wants her job: ‘Shouldn't be on the payroll'
ALBANY – Et tu, Antonio? Some establishment Democrats called for Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado to resign Tuesday – one day after he announced he'd run in a party primary against Gov. Kathy Hochul. 'He shouldn't be on the payroll of the employer he opposes,' Queens Borough President Donovan Richards told The Post. Advertisement 'Hochul has been very good for Queens. Whatever we've asked for, she has delivered,' Richards, who has been rumored as a potential new LG pick himself, said. Hochul handpicked Delgado to be her No. 2 in 2022, but it's long been expected he'd throw his hat in the ring to try to unseat her in the 2026 election. 3 Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado will not step down even as he campaigns to unseat his boss, per a spokesperson. Hans Pennink Advertisement 'I call for the ungrateful Mr. Delgado to IMMEDIATELY RESIGN as Lieutenant Governor,' Assemblywoman Yudelka Tapia (D-Bronx) wrote on X Monday night with an endorsement of the governor. Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie (D-Bronx) praised Hochul and pushed back against the idea of a primary in comments to POLITICO though he stopped short of calling for Delgago to step aside. 'Governor Hochul has been a strong partner working with me on behalf of all New Yorkers,' Heastie said. 'We need to be united.' A spokesperson for Delgado stamped out any speculation the lieutenant governor will relinquish his title and $210,000 per year paycheck, which are effectively all the perks of the office Hochul has left him with. Advertisement 'When someone challenges the status quo, the establishment pushes back — we expected that. But Antonio Delgado isn't running to win over insiders,' said Steven Ileka, Delgado's press secretary. 'He's running to fight for everyday New Yorkers, not the powerful few.' 3 Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie is backing Gov. Kathy Hochul and calling for Dems to be united after Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado officially entered the Governor's race Monday. Hans Pennink Delgado also faced calls to turn down the temperature within the party ranks even if he stays put. 'I respect the will of the voters, so I'm not calling on Delgado to resign—but he needs to chill and stop stirring infighting,' Assemblywoman Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn (D-Brooklyn), who also chairs the Brooklyn Democratic Committee, told The Post in a statement. Advertisement 'Governor Kathy Hochul is a respected and popular Democratic incumbent with a strong track record and bold leadership on the issues that matter—affordability, public safety, education, immigration, and more,' Bichotte Hermelyn added. 3 'The powerful and well-connected have their champions. I'm running for Governor to be yours,' Delgado said in a video announcing his candidacy. Kevin C. Downs for NY Post Delgado's infant campaign has already taken an approach of attacking Hochul and her growing crew in the capital. 'The powerful and well-connected have their champions. I'm running for Governor to be yours,' Delgado said in a video announcing his candidacy. On his campaign website, the LG rips Hochul for vetoing two bills that would help expand childcare access and promises to deliver state-funded universal childcare. He also calls for 'universal healthcare' and expanding New York's public option. Hochul's campaign declined to comment.
