What's recalled

This recall involves all Panasonic Electric Toaster Ovens, Model No. NB-G200. The Electric Toaster Ovens are stainless steel with the temperature knob located on the bottom. The brand name Panasonic is written on the front of the product. The Electric Toaster has six cooking menus with pre-set buttons, with a digital timer (up to 25 minutes) and temperature settings (250-Degree F to 500-Degree F).

The risk

There have been four consumer reports of tripped circuit breakers or outlets, and one report that the product stopped working. No fires or injuries have been reported.
