Amazon recalls overview:
- Who: Amazon has recalled 8,800 Gevi Household Countertop Nugget Ice Makers, 570 two-pound bags of Crystal Clear Sodium Hydroxide and 280 YourHealthToolkit five-pound children’s weighted blankets.
- Why: The metal blades on the auger of the ice maker can break and leave small pieces of metal in the ice bucket, the sodium hydroxide was not put in child-resistant packaging and the weighted blankets can entrap young children by unzipping and then pose the risk of asphyxiation, according to the Amazon recalls.

Three products sold exclusively on Amazon.com are being recalled. Approximately 8,800 Gevi Household Countertop Nugget Ice Makers, 570 two-pound bags of Crystal Clear Sodium Hydroxide and 280 YourHealthToolkit five-pound children’s weighted blankets are part of the Amazon recalls.
The product risks include metal blades on the auger of the ice maker can break and leave small pieces of metal in the ice bucket, the sodium hydroxide was not put in child-resistant packaging and the weighted blankets can entrap young children by unzipping and then pose the risk of asphyxiation, according to the Amazon recalls.

The recalled Family Health Products sodium hydroxide is packaged in a resealable two-pound bag with “CRYSTAL CLEAR”, “SODIUM HYDROXIDE”, “Protect, Deliver, Clean”, and “NaOH” printed in large type.

I had to buy a whole new unit for my icemaker, please add me. I can’t afford to buy another one, so it looks like I no longer can make ice.
