What’s Happened?

Three customers have contacted us to tell us that this particular model of microwave has been overheating. As we are concerned that this is a fire risk we have taken the decision to recall this model. We are glad to say that no one has been hurt.

What You Should Do

If you own one of these microwaves, disconnect it from the mains supply and stop using it. Bring back the microwave to your nearest ASDA, you don’t need the box or the receipt.

    Hello Alma. No, you have up to 6 years (5 in Scotland) to claim under the sale of goods act. This product has been admitted to be potentially dangerous so it clearly wasn’t fit for its purpose.
