Urgent Recall for Dreame Hair Dryer Due to Electrocution Risk
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Israel's Ministry of Economy and Industry issued an urgent recall on Thursday for the Dreame brand hair dryer, model AIR STYLE 5 in 1, with barcode 6976233677392. The recall was prompted by a significant safety defect discovered by a Standards Institution inspector, which poses a risk of electric shock.

The defect involves the hair dryer's plug, which is not compliant with Israeli standard requirements. It was found to be equipped with a foreign plug, not a standard Israeli one. This non-compliance with Israeli Standard TI 32 Part 1.1, concerning plugs and sockets for domestic use, could lead to malfunctions in electrical outlets and potentially cause electrocution.

Kristalino Ltd., the importer and marketer of the product in Israel, announced the recall. The ministry's announcement stated, "The product has a foreign plug (non-Israeli). Using it may cause a failure in the wall socket's function and in some cases even lead to electrocution."

Consumers who own the affected hair dryer are strongly advised to stop using it immediately. They are instructed to contact the importer for repair of the defect, following further guidance. For service and additional information, customers can reach Kristalino Ltd. via email at service@dreame-israel.co.il, by phone at 03-302-8959, or by dialing *8959. The importer's address is 32 Rivlin Street in Tel Aviv.
