Just the Gem 65 8-in-1 Multicookers, not the pressure cookers. Whew!

"According to the post from Instant Pot, “We have received a small number of reports of the Gem 65 8-in-1 Multicooker overheating, resulting in localized melting damage to the underside of the product.” Owners are asked to look on the silver label on the underside of the cooker; if the batch code is 1728, 1730, 1731, 1734, and 1746, Instant Pot wants you “to immediately stop use of the product.”

Yeah....I don't think most folks will be affected, as the pressure cookers are the far more popular of their products.

But it is good to know Pam. I did not even know about their "Multi-Cooker"...interesting. Thanks!
