The model number may also appear on the sides of the product. The base also contains a clear storage compartment for accessories, a handle, wheels, an eight-foot-long black steam hose, and a nozzle/gun with trigger to start and stop the steam.
Consumers should stop using the recalled steamers immediately and contact Wagner for a free repair kit consisting of a hose sleeve, nozzle cover and funnel.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
