Which ones does it cover?
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using Le Hao Tool pressure washers immediately. The pressure washers lack an integrated immersion protection device on or near the power plug, also known as a Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI), posing a risk of death or serious injury due to electrocution and shock. Le Hao Tool, of China, originally recalled the pressure washers for a full refund on April 16, 2026, but has since stopped honoring its obligations under that recall. Additionally, in some instances, consumers have reported that Le Hao Tool has offered them an unauthorized replacement remedy. CPSC has not approved or assessed the safety of any replacement recall remedies and urges consumers not to use any replacement product they may have been offered. CPSC urges consumers to stop using the pressure washers immediately, and destroy them by unplugging, cutting the power cord, and disposing of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous pressure washers. The pressure washers were manufactured in China. The Le Hao Tool electric pressure washers were sold in green or blue with black trim, measuring about 25 inches high, 12 inches wide and 11 inches deep. The pressure washers come with a touch screen, foam cannon, four quick disconnect nozzles, a 20-foot hose and two rollers. Labeling on the front of the pressure washer reads “ELECTRONIC High Pressure Washer.”Report any incidents involving injury or product defect to CPSC at www.SaferProducts.gov.
