Own a JKMAX heated blanket or heating pad? What the recall covers and how to get a refund
On September 17, 2026, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) published a recall notice covering all heating pads and heated blankets sold by JKMAX. CPSC's notice states the recall "involves all heating pads and heated blankets sold by JKMax including models JKMAX-002, JKMAX-7284B, JKMAX-6284B, JKMAX-10090B, JKMAX-8490B and JKMAX-6284B" — blue, gray, brown or red polyester blankets and pads with a detachable white remote, with the model number printed on the back of the remote and on a label on the product packaging. About 195,000 units are covered.
CPSC's stated hazard: "The internal wire heating elements of the blankets and pads can overheat, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers." CPSC's stated remedy: "Consumers should stop using the recalled blankets and pads immediately and contact JKMax for a full refund." To request that refund, CPSC's notice lists these contact channels: a toll-free line at 800-917-5732 (8:30 a.m.–6 p.m. ET, Monday–Friday), the email address [email protected], the website www.jkmaxrecall.com, or clicking "Recalls and Product Safety Alerts" at the bottom of an amazon.com page. readers who cannot reach JKMAX through the phone or email channel can also use CPSC's own recall-complaint form, linked from CPSC's recall notice, to report a non-responsive company.
JKMAX's own recall page (jkmaxrecall.com/recall, checked 2026-09-28) sets out this return-and-refund process: unplug the product and stop using it; cut the entire power cord so it cannot be reused; prepare your Amazon order number, the unit price you paid, and clear photos of the blanket or pad, the controller and plug, and the care label showing the model number; write "Recalled" and your last name on the controller in permanent marker; email those photos and details to [email protected] to request a prepaid return label; then ship the cut cord, product, controller and plug back with that label. JKMAX says it will reply within two weeks because of high inquiry volume, and that refunds are issued to the original payment method after the return is received. Its recall page lists hotline hours of 9 a.m.–5 p.m. ET, Monday–Friday, while CPSC's notice lists 8:30 a.m.–6 p.m. ET.
If you or someone else was burned, or a product smoked, melted or caught fire, you can report the incident to CPSC at SaferProducts.gov or its hotline, 800-638-2772.
