## Resource

A shocking Consumer Reports investigation reveals dangerous lead contamination in the Black+Decker PowerCrush BL1230 blender, linked to elevated lead levels in a one-year-old’s blood after daily use for baby food. Two out of three tested units showed high lead in the blade assembly’s food-contact metal ring — a major red flag since lead is especially toxic to children. The FDA confirms lead is banned in food-contact products. Black+Decker hasn’t responded yet, but Consumer Reports urges immediate stop-use and contact with the manufacturer if you own this model.
