CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using Tajarly Heated Insoles Due to Risk of Serious Burn Injury and Fire Hazard

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using Tajarly heated insoles because the internal lithium-ion battery can overheat and ignite, even when the insoles are turned off, posing a risk of serious burn injury and fire hazard. CPSC has received four reports of ignition, fires, and other thermal incidents involving the defective heated insoles resulting in burn injuries, including two incidents that required extended hospital stays.

Shenzhen Tejiali Technology Co., of China, manufactures this product and has been unresponsive to CPSC requests for a recall or information about this product.

The defective heated insoles are black, contain a lithium-ion battery and are operated by a remote control. The brand name "Tajarly" is printed on the sole and can also be found on the purchase receipt. The defective heated insoles were sold on Amazon from July 2022 through July 2024 for between $33 and $320.

These products were manufactured in China.

CPSC urges consumers to immediately dispose of the defective heated insoles following local hazardous waste disposal procedures.

Note: Do not throw this defective lithium-ion battery or device in the trash, the general recycling stream (e.g., street-level or curbside recycling bins), or used battery recycling boxes found at various retail and home improvement stores. Defective lithium-ion batteries must be disposed of differently than other batteries, because they present a greater risk of fire. Your municipal household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center may accept this defective lithium-ion battery or device for disposal. Before taking your battery or device to a HHW collection center, contact it ahead of time and ask whether it accepts defective lithium-ion batteries. If it does not, contact your municipality for further guidance.
