Dirt Devil Vacuum Accessory Tools Recalled


Reports of Personal Injury from Broken Parts

About 987,000 Dirt Devil vacuum power brush attachment tools are being recalled because plastic pieces inside the vacuum tool can break apart and be ejected, posing a laceration hazard to consumers.

The manufacturer, TTI Floor Care North America, of Glenwillow, OH, has received 140 reports of incidents involving the recalled vacuum tool, including 12 reports of injuries.

The recalled Dirt Devil Turbo Tool/Power Brush attachment was sold as an accessory with the following Dirt Devil vacuum models. Only vacuum tool accessories with date codes J7060 through J7365 and have a C-clip connector are included in this recall. The date code is located on the underside of the vacuum accessory. The Turbo Tool/Power Brush tools are about 6 ½ inches long by about 5 inches wide and come in a variety of colors that match the color of the vacuum. The housing of the tool was made in clear, red, green, or light blue with clear, light blue, dark blue, red, purple, or black turbine fans with matching brush rolls.

The vacuum was sold through mass merchandisers, home improvement stores and other retail stores nationwide from April 2007 through April 2008 for between $60 and $170 for the vacuum cleaner, including accessory tools.
