Massive Recall Alert: Kitchen Faucets Sold on Amazon Found to Leach Lead
In a critical safety announcement, Consumer Affairs has revealed the recall of 100,000 kitchen faucets sold on Amazon, following concerns that they may allow lead to leach into drinking water. This finding raises serious health risks, especially for young children and infants, who are particularly vulnerable to the neurological effects of lead exposure, including impaired cognitive performance and lower IQ.
The recall involves three specific models of faucets:
-
VFAUOSIT Kitchen Faucets (Model: 06BNV) – These faucets were available on Amazon from January 2024 to May 2025 for approximately $40. Consumers are urged to cease use immediately and contact Whisper08 for disposal instructions and refunds. To process the refund, a photograph showing the faucet’s disposal along with the order number will be required.
-
KICIMPRO Kitchen Faucets (Model: KM800-01-06BN) – Sold between May 2024 and May 2025 for about $30, these faucets also pose similar risks. Consumers must stop using them and reach out to Kicimpro for proper disposal guidance and refunds, again providing a photo of the disposed product and the order number.
- BASDEHEN Kitchen Faucets (Model Numbers: CFDTTH-000-YGH) – Retailing for around $30 and sold during the same timeframe, these faucets require immediate cessation of use. Consumers should contact Chenfeng for disposal and refund procedures, needing to provide a photo for the refund process.
In the interim, users of these faucets are advised to let water run for 15 seconds before consumption until replacements can be secured. With the safety of consumers at stake, immediate action is warranted to ensure the protection of families, particularly the youngest and most vulnerable members.
