Recall alert: 2 faucet models sold on Amazon risk ‘dangerous lead exposure for young children'
Two types of faucets sold on Amazon were recalled Thursday due to the risk of lead contained in the products polluting drinking water, federal safety officials said. 'The recalled faucets were tested and found to contain lead that can leach into water at levels that can be particularly harmful to infants and young children. The faucets were also found to leach other contaminants, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said in a statement. Lead ingestion can impact brain development among infants and young children, causing neurological effects such as attention-related behavioral problems, decreased cognitive performance and lower IQ, the agency said. The recalled faucets are branded as 'BASDEHEN Kitchen Faucets,' with a model number of CFDTTH-000-YGH, and 'VFAUOSIT Kitchen Faucets,' model number 06BNV. More than 20,000 units of each product were sold, authorities said. The BASDEHEN faucet has a single, matte black handle that rotates 360 degrees, with a springy, detachable sprout. It was sold on Amazon by Chenfeng Store from May 2024 until this month. The VFAUOSIT product was described as a 'brushed nickel, single-handle' faucet with a pull-down detachable spray. It was sold on Amazon from January last year through this month. In both cases, consumers should immediately stop using the faucets and contact their sellers about disposal and a refund. Amazon is also contacting known buyers directly, officials said. Until the faucets can be replaced, owners should only consume water from them after running the tap for 15 seconds, authorities said.
