Costco, Amazon Shoppers Urged To Check Their Kitchens After Appliance Recalled Over Shock And Fire Hazards
Panasonic has recalled one of its toaster ovens across the United States and Canada after the company found the appliance posed a risk of electric shock or fire.
The recall covers 11,480 Panasonic Model No. NB-G200 Electric Toaster Ovens sold in the U.S., as well as another 2,184 sold in Canada.
Pansonic said the power cord insulation "can be insufficient due to a protective fiberglass sleeve not covering it adequately, posing a risk of shock and/or fire hazard."

From October 2024 to April 2026, the toaster oven was sold for about $170 at Costco, on Amazon and through several other online retailers.
Consumers who believe they own the recalled toaster oven can verify the model number by checking the nameplate label on the back of the appliance.
Notices from both the U.S. government and Canada urge customers to immediately stop using the product and return it to Panasonic for a full refund.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said it has received four consumer reports of the toaster oven tripping circuit breakers or outlets. A fifth report noted the toaster simply stopped working.
As of June 15, 2026, Panasonic said it had not received any reports of incidents or injuries in Canada related to the toaster.
Panasonic said in a statement to Fox News Digital that it "had no additional information to share beyond what is included in the public recall announcement at this time."
Costco and Amazon did not immediately respond to FOX Business' requests for comment.
