Giantex has issued a voluntary recall of approximately 7,200 units of its portable steam saunas, sold under both the Giantex and Costway brand names, due to a serious burn hazard. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall after reports that the steam outlet on the sauna can direct hot steam toward the user, posing a significant risk of burns to consumers.

What Products Are Being Recalled?

  • Product Names: Giantex Portable Steam Sauna and Costway Portable Steam Sauna
  • Brands: Giantex and Costway
  • Units: Approximately 7,200
  • Description: Portable personal steam saunas designed for home use, featuring a foldable chair and steam generator unit
  • Where Sold: Online at Amazon, Walmart.com, and other online retailers from January 2022 through October 2023
  • Price Range: Approximately $70 to $130

Why Was This Recall Issued?

The recall was initiated because the steam outlet on the portable sauna can direct hot steam toward the user during operation. This design flaw poses a burn hazard to anyone using the product. Giantex has received at least five reports of consumers sustaining burns while using the recalled saunas, underlining the seriousness of this safety issue. The risk is particularly acute when consumers are seated inside the sauna enclosure and exposed to misdirected steam.

Consumers who purchased the Giantex Portable Steam Sauna or the Costway Portable Steam Sauna from January 2022 through October 2023 are affected by this recall. The products were sold through major online retail platforms including Amazon and Walmart.com across the United States. Anyone who owns one of these approximately 7,200 units should stop using it immediately and follow the remedy instructions provided below.
