(CNN) – A recall involving handheld garment steamers has been expanded.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission said the recall now includes more than one and half million black and decker easy garment steamers, including those that were repaired when they were previously recalled in November 2022.

You should immediately stop using the steamer.

They pose a burn risk as they can spray or leak hot water while in use.

Since the initial recall,  there have been 317 reports of hot water spraying, including 82 reports of burns.

The steamers were sold in store and online at Walmart, Target, Amazon, Bed Bath and Beyond and other retailers.

Affected customers can get a full refund.
