One of the leading makers of exercise equipment is asking customers to return one of their products.

According to Consumer ReportsPeloton is advising customers to stop using their Tread+ and Tread treadmills after a number of product-related injuries have been reported

The Consumer Product Safety Commission says there have been more than 70 reports of injuries to adults, children, and pets, plus reports of objects being pulled under the rear of the treadmill.

When the issues first came to light in May of this year, Peloton initially refused to recall the treadmills, a decision that the company's CEO John Foley later said was 'a mistake'.

Peloton now says the Tread’s touchscreen can detach and fall, posing a risk of injury to consumers.

They are advising consumers to immediately stop using the treadmills and contact the company for a full refund.

The Peloton Tread+ (previously called the Peloton Tread) has been on the market since 2018. A smaller treadmill, also called the Peloton Tread, was slated to go on sale May 27, with 1,000 units already sold in the U.S. as part of a friends-and-family presale.

LOOK: Best Beers From Every State

To find the best beer in each state and Washington D.C., Stacker analyzed January 2020 data from BeerAdvocate, a website that gathers user scores for beer in real-time. BeerAdvocate makes its determinations by compiling consumer ratings for all 50 states and Washington D.C. and applying a weighted rank to each. The weighted rank pulls the beer toward the list's average based on the number of ratings it has and aims to allow lesser-known beers to increase in rank. Only beers with at least 10 rankings to be considered; we took it a step further to only include beers with at least 100 user rankings in our gallery. Keep reading to find out what the best beer is in each of the 50 states and Washington D.C.
