HSN has recalled 5.4 million handheld clothing steamers after more than 100 people were burned when hot water sprayed or leaked from the units.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission said Wednesday that the Joy/JM-branded My Little Steamer® and My Little Steamer® Go Mini can expel, spray, or leak hot water during use, posing a serious burn hazard to consumers. Recalled models have either a flat or triangular steamer head, and the name of the product is printed on the side of the unit.
