The product, in the report: me Hair Removal System
06/15/2017 (Approximate) - The consumer indicates that he had just turned on the hair removal system when a few seconds later sparks shot out about six inches. The consumer instinctively dropped the unit to the floor. The consumer unplugged the device from the wall, noticing that smoke was coming out of it; burn marks were also evident.
07/05/2017 (Approximate) - The consumer contacted the Manufacturer and explained the situation. The representative he spoke to informed him that the warranty does not cover the retailer he purchased it at so there was no assistance they could provide.
The consumer indicates that the product was used, on average, two to four times per month for approximately ten minutes each use prior to the day of the incident. The consumer plans on keeping his hair removal system for at least the next thirty days in case an investigation ensues.
