Own a Blue Cactus recliner battery? What to check first

The Blue Cactus Company, which calls itself "a GoNorth brand," states on its own website that it "is voluntarily recalling 2500mAh Reclining Chair Battery Packs with model number RWX-RBP02" because "the recalled battery packs may overheat, posing a fire hazard to consumers." The recall covers about 51,000 units sold on Amazon.com from May 2023 through July 2026 for about $105 each, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's recall notice (26-791, September 24, 2026), which the company's own site says is "being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)."

  • Check the model number. The recall applies only to model RWX-RBP02, printed on the reverse of the battery pack, with "The Blue Cactus Company" logo on the front. Other Blue Cactus products (power-supply cords, adapter cables, the 5000mAh pack) are not described as part of this recall.
  • If your battery is model RWX-RBP02, stop using it immediately — the company's own instructions say so, and the CPSC recall lists four reports of these packs "overheating, smoking, or igniting."
  • Request a replacement through the form at thebluecactuscompany.com, providing your name, email, phone number, Order ID, shipping address and a photo of the model number on the back of the battery. The company's site states replacements are "expected to ship within 6-8 weeks" once a battery is confirmed as affected.
  • Do not throw the recalled battery in the trash, curbside recycling, or a retail battery-recycling box. The company's own disposal instructions say to contact your municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center first and ask whether it accepts recalled lithium-ion batteries.
  • For help, the company lists [email protected] (recall questions) and [email protected] (general support); no phone number is published on the site.
  • Keep records of your replacement request, Order ID, and any correspondence in case the 6-8 week ship window is not met.
  • Report a fire, injury or other incident to CPSC at SaferProducts.gov (saferproducts.gov/IncidentReporting) or its hotline, 800-638-2772.
  • Do not resell it. CPSC's notice states: "Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC."

Who operates The Blue Cactus Company

The Blue Cactus Company's own website identifies itself only as "a GoNorth brand," without naming a legal entity, address, or phone number. The CPSC's recall notice for the company's recliner battery packs names the importer of record as Go North Rocket 28 AB, of Sweden.

The Blue Cactus Company calls itself "a GoNorth brand," while Go North Group AB describes itself as a Gothenburg-based company originally founded as an Amazon aggregator, a Gothenburg-based company that describes itself, on its own "About" page, as "Based in Gothenburg, Sweden" and originally "founded as an Amazon Aggregator" that "acquired brands selling primarily on Amazon in the USA," with a stated mission of "solving people's problems everyday" and delivering "Products with Purpose."

Frequently Asked Questions

Is The Blue Cactus Company legit?

The Blue Cactus Company has an Amazon storefront, and CPSC identifies Go North Rocket 28 AB as the importer of its recalled battery packs. The Blue Cactus site calls itself "a GoNorth brand," while Go North Group AB describes itself as a Gothenburg-based Amazon aggregator. Its recliner battery packs are the subject of a September 24, 2026 CPSC recall notice (26-791), a voluntary safety action, not a fraud or enforcement finding. No BBB, Trustpilot, ComplaintsBoard, ScamPulse or ConsumerAffairs profile for the company was found in the sources checked on 2026-09-28, and this page assigns the company no rating or "scam" label of its own.

Is my Blue Cactus recliner battery part of the recall?

Only battery packs with model number RWX-RBP02, printed on the reverse of the pack, with "The Blue Cactus Company" logo on the front, are covered by the September 24, 2026 CPSC recall (notice 26-791). The recalled 2500mAh packs were sold on Amazon.com from May 2023 through July 2026 for about $105. Check the back of your battery pack for the model number before assuming a purchase is affected.

How do I request a replacement battery from Blue Cactus?

According to the company's own recall instructions, consumers with an affected RWX-RBP02 battery submit a form on thebluecactuscompany.com with their full name, email address, phone number, Order ID, shipping address, and "a clear photo of the battery showing the model number printed on the reverse." Once the company confirms the battery is affected, it adds the consumer to a replacement list; the company's site states replacement battery packs are "expected to ship within 6-8 weeks." For help, contact [email protected].

My recalled battery still seems to work — can I keep using it?

The company's own recall instructions say: "If your battery is model RWX-RBP02, stop using it immediately" and describes the hazard as batteries that "may overheat, posing a fire hazard to consumers." The CPSC recall notice separately reports four cases of these battery packs "overheating, smoking, or igniting." Continuing to use a battery that matches the recalled model is against the company's and CPSC's own instructions, regardless of whether it currently appears to work normally.

How do I safely dispose of the recalled battery?

The company's own disposal instructions state: "Do not throw this recalled lithium-ion battery or device in the trash, in the general recycling stream (e.g., street-level or curbside recycling bins), or in used battery recycling boxes found at various retail and home improvement stores," because recalled lithium-ion batteries "present a greater risk of fire." Instead, contact your municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center and ask in advance whether it accepts recalled lithium-ion batteries; if it does not, contact your municipality for further guidance.

Who owns The Blue Cactus Company?

The Blue Cactus Company describes itself on its own site only as "a GoNorth brand." The CPSC's recall notice for its recliner batteries names Go North Rocket 28 AB of Sweden as importer of record. The brand's own site calls Blue Cactus "a GoNorth brand"; Go North Group AB, a Gothenburg-based company, describes itself as having been founded as an Amazon aggregator that "acquired brands selling primarily on Amazon in the USA."

How do I contact The Blue Cactus Company?

The Blue Cactus Company lists two email addresses on its website: [email protected] for questions about the September 2026 battery recall, and [email protected] for general customer support. No phone number is published on the company's website as of September 28, 2026.

Is there a lawsuit against Blue Cactus over the recalled batteries?

A law firm, Johnson // Becker, PLLC, has published a marketing page about the recall stating it is "currently accepting new cases" and "currently accepting new battery pack lawsuits nationwide" — language describing client solicitation, not an existing lawsuit. No filed lawsuit naming The Blue Cactus Company or Go North Rocket 28 AB over these battery packs was found on CourtListener or elsewhere in the sources checked on September 28, 2026.

Does Blue Cactus have a BBB or Trustpilot rating?

No Better Business Bureau profile for The Blue Cactus Company, and no Trustpilot profile for thebluecactuscompany.com, was found in the sources checked on September 28, 2026. BBB search results for "Blue Cactus" return only unrelated same-name businesses (a horticulture contractor, a pest-control company and a restaurant). The company's own site cites Amazon review counts ("9,221 Reviews"), and a third-party seller-rating aggregator separately lists 4.9 out of 5 from 867 reviews — these are Amazon-specific figures, not BBB or Trustpilot ratings.
