Nearly 200K Ceiling Fans Sold At Home Depot Being Recalled Due To Disconnecting Blades
MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Almost 200,000 ceiling fans sold at Home Depot are being recalled because the blades can detach while in use.
The recall is for Hampton Bay 54-inch Mara Indoor/Outdoor fans sold exclusively at the home improvement store.
The recalled fans came in these finishes:
- Matte White (UPC No. 082392519186)
- Matte Black (UPC No. 082392519193)
- Black (UPC No. 082392599195)

King of Fans, the Fort Lauderdale-based distributor of the product, said it received dozens of reports of the blades disconnecting.
If you have this fan, stop using it immediately and contact the company for a replacement.
The trouble does not impact all of the China-made Mara 54-inch fans, according to the company, which offered a link to a YouTube video showing consumers how to determine if a fan is defective and needs to be replaced.
