There have been even more hoverboard recalls these past few days
The advice is to stop using them immediately.
Hoverboards sold by major retailers such as Argos, Tesco and John Lewis have been recalled due to safety concerns.
Hoverboards have been a very popular Christmas present this year, and I have countless friends sharing videos of themselves or their family on one but there are fears the hoverboards are unsafe with there is a risk of fire and explosion due to poor design and construction.
Anyone who have bought one of the recalled hoverboards are urged to stop using it immediately and return it to the retailer.
