This recall involves Vornado Sunny CS (cribside) model EH1-0090 electric space heaters. They were sold in white with an accent of melon and gray colors. The heaters measure approximately 12 inches high, 8 inches deep and 11 inches at the base. The controls are mounted in a soft touch panel on the top of the unit with a multi-color display in the center of the control panel. "Vornadobaby" is printed on the side of the heater. The Vornado logo is printed on the front center of the unit. The model/type "SUNNY CS EH1-0090" and serial number are printed on a silver decal on the bottom of the unit under the elastic cord wrap.

Hazards

A broken motor mount can allow the electric heating element to come in contact with the interior plastic materials and ignite, posing fire and burn hazards.
