The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued a major recall of over 100,000 kitchen faucets from three different brands after they were found to contain lead.
The faucets, which were sold on Amazon, were recalled on May 29 by the independent government agency. “The recalled faucets were tested and found to contain lead that can leach into water at levels that can be particularly harmful to infants and young children. The faucets were also found to leach other contaminants,” the government organization wrote.
About 24,000 units of BASDEHEN Kitchen Faucets, model number CFDTTH-000-YGH were affected, as were about 50,000 units of KICIMPRO Kitchen Faucets, model number KM800-01-06BN, and about 29,000 units of VFAUOSIT Kitchen Faucets, model number 06BNV.

“Lead ingestion can cause harmful neurological effects on infants and young children, including attention-related behavioral problems, decreased cognitive performance and lower IQ,” the agency wrote in its recall. Either Amazon or the sellers will be contacting customers regarding the recall.
Customers should immediately stop using these faucets and contact the Amazon seller about disposal and a refund. They will need to provide a photograph of disposal and their order number to receive the refund, the agency said.
