I'm only posting this because it's likely there are many of these Air Fryers in use.
A bit late- sorry but only just noticed it

Almost 60,000 Tower air fryers recalled due to fire risk​

July 10, 2025

The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) is warning consumers to stop using certain models of Tower air fryers following a recall from the company. Almost 60,000 affected models have been sold in retail outlets across the Republic of Ireland.

The affected air fryers have a manufacturing defect that may cause the appliance to overheat, potentially leading to fires and risking injury or death. Although no incidents have been reported in Ireland to date, there have been reports in the UK of these products catching fire.

The CCPC is urging consumers to check if they own one of the five affected models listed below.

The air fryer models affected by the recall are:

  • T17023 Tower 2.2Ltr Manual Air Fryer
  • T17061BLK Tower 4Ltr Manual Air Fryer
  • T17067 Tower 4Ltr Digital Air Fryer
  • T17087 Tower 2Ltr Compact Manual Air Fryer
  • T17129L Vortx 8L Dual Basket Air Fryer

How to check your model


To find the model number, consumers should unplug their air fryer and check the appliance rating label located at the bottom of the air fryer. The model number will begin with the letter T.

Consumers who have one of the affected air fryers should stop using the product immediately, unplug it and contact Tower Housewares. They can do this on the website or by emailing [email protected].

The affected products were manufactured between 2020 and 2024 and were sold in various retailers including Argos, Tesco Ireland, DID, Dealz, Lidl, Amazon and the Tower Housewares website. Other retailers may also be included.
 
B&M Bargains in UK have this recall posted too

Checked my recently purchased Tower 2 basket today and pleased to report that it's a different model number to that in the list.
 
Probably hundreds or even thousands affected.
I wondered if Tower contacted those who registered for the warranty. I'm guessing not?
