Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer Consumer Warning

Many people love the convenience and health-saving benefits of air fryers. However, these popular countertop appliances can pose a serious risk of personal injury and property damage if manufactured improperly.

One brand of air fryer, the Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer, has recently been subject to a class-action lawsuit following claims that the product is defective and dangerous. At least two consumers claim the appliance caught fire during use despite strict adherence to safety instructions. The four models under scrutiny — the Power AirFryer 360, 360 XL, Deluxe, and Plus — are said to have a defective design that causes the appliances to overheat and reach temperatures hundreds of degrees above what’s considered safe for air fryers. 

The lawsuit cites the product’s improper air circulation, excessive heating elements, and poorly designed drip tray as three essentially flawed design elements. The lack of an operational safety mechanism to switch off the appliance when it becomes too hot further exacerbates the fire risk. These defects render the products unfit for their intended purpose, which is to reliably and safely cook food. Despite mounting scrutiny, the manufacturer has denied warranty claims, replaced the defective appliances with similarly defective air fryers, and refused to conduct a voluntary recall of the product. This negligence continues to put users at risk across the U.S. 

Product liability laws exist to ensure such acts of negligence do not go unpunished. When a manufacturer sells a defective product on the open market, they are responsible for any ill consequences that follow. By choosing not to recall the four Power AirFryer models, the manufacturer is flouting its consumer commitments. Their actions, or lack of action, run the risk of serious personal injury to users and damage to their property, which is an unacceptable breach of consumer trust.

If you find your Power AirFryer catches fire from no fault of your own, our attorneys will be on hand to fight your corner. We’ll help you recover any damages and hold the culpable organization to account for its actions. With vast knowledge and experience in product liability law, Morgan & Morgan is well equipped to take on your legal challenge and deliver the best results in your case.

FAQ

Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how we may assist you with your case.

  • Are Air Fryers Dangerous?

    Rapid hot air circulation technology used by air fryers causes their internal and external components to get extremely hot during use. This isn’t an issue for most air fryers, which are fitted with related safety mechanisms. However, poorly designed or defective air fryers are prone to catch fire at high temperatures. This can cause personal injury and property damage.

  • Which Emeril Lagasse Products are Considered Dangerous?

    Four Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer models have recently been subject to a class action following claims from at least two users that the products caught fire despite proper adherence to safety and usage instructions. The models under scrutiny are:

    • Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer 360
    • Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer 360 XL
    • Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer Deluxe
    • Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer Plus

    According to the lawsuit, defective design features cause the products to overheat and reach temperatures of 537°C (or 1000°F), well above the 310–360°C range considered to be the maximum for safe air fryer cooking.

  • Can a Lawyer Help With an Unsafe Product?

    If you’ve suffered personal injury or damage to your property as a result of a defective Emeril Lagasse Power AirFryer, a product liability attorney may be able to help you gain your rightful compensation. As a consumer, it’s important to take a stand against irresponsible manufacturers and hold them to account for their actions. By teaming up with an experienced attorney to fight your corner, you’ll be setting an example for other organizations to follow.
