Within the same product category, the database holds 6 closely related recalls. That clustering is a signal — repeated actions in a narrow category often indicate a systemic quality-control issue, a supplier-wide contamination, or a design defect that has propagated across product lines. This recall is roughly 1 year old; older recalls can remain relevant because many units enter resale, rental, and secondary-market channels where the original warning never reaches the end user. Always cross-check the recall number against the official agency page before relying on any summary.

This recall involves the IcyBreeze Buddy, a portable, battery-operated misting fan. The portable fan is equipped with a 1.5-liter water tank for continuous misting and allows consumers to choose between AC power or the 10,000 mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery for up to 7 hours of outdoor use. The misting fan displays "ICYBREEZE" on both the fan and the base of the product and comes in slate blue, gray, and seafoam.

Your municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center may accept this recalled lithium-ion battery or device for disposal.
