The product, in the report: Blower Vacuum
Caller stated that the blower vacuum has a failure, while using it approximately 30 seconds, her spouse held in it his hand and it began taking in his garment, then the plastic crate at the bottom of the unit broke which caused it to take in even more of the garment. He then noticed that the electrical cord started to melt. It was unplugged to prevent further damages.
She had a prior incident with the blower but her spouse thought she had used it incorrectly. She feels that this blower is a safety hazard and should be recalled.
The manufacturer or retailer was not contacted as yet.
