Spring is around the corner and outdoor chefs across the country are getting ready for cookouts. Before cleaning that grill, though, they will want to double-check their brushes. That’s because Nexgrill recalled more than 10 million of its brushes and warned people to stop using them immediately.
Nexgrill sold the affected brushes between 2015 and 2016 at Home Depot stores and online. In all, over 10.2 million brushes were sold in that time. The full list of recalled brushes :The company explained that small, metal wire bristles can come off the brushes and get stuck inside food. If someone ate food with bristles in it, they could suffer serious injuries that could potentially require surgery.Nexgrill encourages customers to return the brushes for a full refund, in the form of a $5 to $15 gift card, if the claim is successful. The company has also posted details on how to get a refund by going to www.nexgrill.com or nexgrill.mktpoint.com/recall.
