Belize Bureau of Standards - Consumer Watch - Lasko Fans Recall - In March 2011 the US Consumer Product Safety Commission working with the manufacturer Lasko Products Inc. issued a voluntary recall. The recall pertains to the box fans the company manufactures. The product is being recalled due to reports of fires caused by motor failures as a result of electrical failure in the fan's motor.

The recall involves box fans with the model numbers 3720, 3723 and 3733. It also includes Galaxy box fans with the model numbers 4733 which have the date 2002-03 or 2003-04 stamped at the bottom of the metal frame. Fan manufactured by this company can be identified by the printed words "Lasko or Galaxy" on the physical fan. Considering that Belize imports products of this particular brand, consumers are asked to be cognizant of the recall and any other recall that is issued internationally products imported to Belize.
