SAFETY RECALL

In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Conair is voluntarily recalling the Cuisinart Compact Blender & Juicer Extractor Combo – Model CBJ-450.  The nut holding the blade assembly of the blender can loosen and detach from the base when in use, posing a laceration hazard if a consumer comes in contact with a loose blade. The juice extractor is unaffected and may continue to be used.

The model number is printed on the label located on the bottom of the base (see image below) and on the original packaging. The blades are silver-colored stainless steel and have a black plastic center hub. Cuisinart is printed on the front and on the bottom of the compact blender and juice extractor combos. Only Model CBJ-450 blenders are included in this recall.
