K-MART has issued a recall over a dangerous toaster.
The toaster, a Home & Co two-slice stainless steel model TL-136, could have a faulty switch, causing the heating element to remain live – even when the lever is up and the toaster remains off.
There is a risk of electric shock if the user makes contact with the heating element.
