As a result, Dyson has isolated the affected inventory, causing the product to be unavailable for purchase in multiple countries while production catches up.

- ▪Users reported issues such as leaking tanks and water entering the battery compartment, causing some devices to stop working immediately.
- ▪A Dyson spokesperson told Bloomberg that a process issue with a single batch of jet tubes created a potential for water seepage.
- ▪The toothbrush is currently out of stock in the U.S., UK, and Australia because Dyson isolated the impacted devices from its inventory.
- ▪Dyson clarified that the product has not been officially recalled but is unavailable while the company works to restock with non-defective units.
