What is the hazard with Scotch™ brand TL909-50 thermal laminator?

Scotch™ brand TL909-50 thermal laminator was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The recalled thermal laminators may overheat, posing a burn hazard to consumers. That is the hazard as reported publicly by the firm and the regulator; it does not necessarily mean every unit has failed.

Consumers should immediately stop using and unplug the recalled laminators and contact the 3M Company to receive a full refund. Consumers will be asked to fill out a short form, confirm that their laminator is included in the recall, and upload a photograph of the machine with the unplugged power cord cut. The refund will come in the form of a check mailed to the consumer upon receipt of the completed form and confirmation that the machine's power cord has been cut. Sold at: In-store and online at Office Depot, Office Smart and School Specialty, Inc. from August 2024 through September 2025 for between $100 and $130..
