This morning I discovered visible burn/scorch marks around the power switch (COLD/OFF/HOT positions) on my Sweetcrispy 4L Mini Fridge (portable cooler/warmer). The scorching was significant enough to have discolored and melted the plastic casing around the switch panel. The unit was being used as a basic beverage cooler in a home office, plugged into a standard 120V AC outlet, and was only used to store canned water. It was not overloaded or misused in any way. No injuries occurred and the failure was contained to the switch panel, but the thermal damage represents a clear fire hazard that could have had serious consequences had it not been discovered promptly. I am reporting this because I am aware that this same brand (Sweetcrispy) has a prior CPSC recall for a pressure washer due to electrocution hazards related to missing GFCI protection, suggesting a pattern of electrical safety issues across their product line. The product listing on Amazon is now marked as unavailable. I have photographic documentation of the damage available.
