Hatch, a sleep device maker, is recalling nearly 1 million power adapters sold with its Rest 1st Generation sound machines. The plastic housing of these adapters can detach, posing an electrical shock hazard to users, according to a notice from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Approximately 919,000 of these recalled adapters were sold in the U.S., with over 44,000 units sold in Canada, stated Hatch, based in Palo Alto, California.

“The plastic housing around the AC power adapter of some Rest 1st Generation sound machines can come off when the adapter is removed from the power outlet, exposing the power prongs and creating a shock hazard,” the company said in the notice.
