A woman says her unplugged Oral B toothbrush exploded, sparking a fire that caused £200 in damage, though the company denies it could have caused the blaze.
A 33-year-old Manchester woman, Charlotte Bowers, says her unplugged Oral B electric toothbrush exploded and sparked a fire in February 2026 while stored above her sink, causing £200 in damage.
She was asleep at the time and discovered the aftermath the next morning, describing the incident as life-threatening with no warning signs.
The fire was contained by a mirror’s steel frame.
Oral B acknowledged the report but stated an unplugged toothbrush cannot generate enough energy to cause a fire, offering only £35 in compensation.
Bowers rejected the offer, calling it insufficient and vowing to never use electric toothbrushes again.
The cause of the explosion remains unknown.
