Sales Information

Injury Reports

Important Reminders
Consumers are reminded to immediately dispose of the existing detachable cover and keep the diffusers out of the reach of children and pets. The detached magnets pose an ingestion hazard to children, and if swallowed, high-powered magnets can attract each other or other metal objects and become lodged in the digestive system, potentially causing serious health issues such as perforations, twisting, or blockages of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning, and death[1][2].
Pura Scents is offering a free replacement cover for the Pura 4 Smart Home Fragrance Diffusers.
Homeowners who have purchased the Pura 4 Smart Home Fragrance Diffuser for their home-and-garden lifestyle are advised to discard the detachable cover immediately due to a potential magnet hazard. If children or pets ingest the detached magnets, they can attract each other or other metal objects, potentially leading to serious health issues. To receive a free replacement cover, consumers can contact Pura Scents or visit their website.
