July 16, 2026 from the CPSC in conjunction with Government of Canada:
This recall involves the Panasonic Flashxpress Toaster Oven with model numbers NB-G205S (Canadian Model) and NB-G200SVA (US Model). The recalled ovens have a stainless steel trim and use double infrared heat technology to cook food. The model number can be found on the back of the toaster oven on the product label.
Issue: The power cord insulation may be insufficient due to a protective fiberglass sleeve not covering it adequately, which poses an electrical shock hazard to consumers.
As of June 15, 2026, the company has received no reports of incident or injury in Canada. In the United States, the company has received 5 reports of circuit breaker tripping incidents involving the US model, but no incidents of shock or fire and no reports of injuries.
