In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Health Canada, Hamilton Beach Brands is voluntarily recalling model 36531 Baby Food Makers sold in the US and Model 36531C Baby Food Makers sold in Canada. Use of the slicing/shredding disc with the motor shaft adapter can cause the stainless steel pin in the food bowl lid to loosen and fall into processed food.
This recall involves bébé brand baby food makers manufactured by Hamilton Beach. The baby food maker is a small food processor. It has a white and gray motor base with an orange control knob, a clear plastic, five-cup food bowl and a gray-colored food bowl lid with a built-in food chute. “Hamilton Beach” and “bébé” are on the front of the motor base. The food maker comes with the following accessories: a chopping and mixing blade, a slicing and shredding disc, a removable motor shaft adapter, a food pusher, a three cup steaming basket, 10 storage containers and two storage container caddies.
The baby food makers were sold by various retailers nationwide and online from September 2013 through February 2014 for about $90.
Contact Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc. for a free repair kit. Consumers may continue to use the Baby Food Maker to steaming, chopping and pureeing.
