This recall does not include Bialetti brand coffee makers. Hazard identified Health Canada’s sampling and testing program revealed that the coffee maker does not meet the lead requirements for kettles under the Hazardous Products (Kettles) Regulations. Under the Kettles Regulations of the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act, it is illegal to import, advertise or sell a kettle that releases more than 0.01 mg/kg of lead.

Potential health effects associated with exposure to high levels of lead include vomiting, diarrhea, convulsions, coma or even death. Neither Health Canada nor Standa Importing and Distributing Co.
