Emba Recall
I was shocked and dismayed to hear about the recall notice on Emba Cookware issued on 13th March. (Full recall text below).
The recall is for products sold between 27th December 2023 to 24th January 2025.
We ceased to promote Emba in November 2023 due to unrelated (non-safety) reasons, so we did not have Emba products on Buy Me Once during the recall time period, but I'm still very concerned.
I am therefore now looking for clarity on any potential risks to people who purchased before the recall date. In the meantime, anyone with an Emba pan / griddle, please don't use it until I have a chance to get to the bottom of this.
I hope to update everyone who is concerned with news very shortly.
Please, if anyone has concerns or questions reach out to me at…

All the best,
