Workbless recalls electric pressure washers over shock and electrocution risk
The pressure washers have no built-in ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) and the power cord is too short, which can cause serious injury or death from shock and electrocution.
What to do
Stop using the pressure washer right away and contact Workbless for a full refund. Cut the unplugged power cord in half, email a photo of the destroyed washer to service@workbless.net, then dispose of it.
