Health Canada is urging people to ‘immediately stop using’ these kitchen products
Thermos says 27 injury reports include three cases of permanent vision loss, and the company is offering replacement parts instead of refunds.
- The CPSC and Thermos recalled about 8.2 million Stainless King Food Jar and Sportsman Beverage Bottle units after the stoppers were found to lack a central pressure relief, creating an ejection hazard.
- According to the CPSC, built-up pressure from perishable food launches the stopper forcefully when opened, causing 27 documented injuries, including three cases of permanent vision loss after consumers were struck in the eye.
- From March 2008 through July 2024, these products sold at Walmart and Target; models SK3000, SK3020, and SK3010 were manufactured in China and Malaysia, spanning a 16-year retail run.
- Owners of SK3000 and SK3020 units must send a photo of the disposed stopper to Thermos to receive a replacement, while SK3010 owners must return the entire unit for a replacement.
- The recall, logged under CPSC number 26-444, reflects the agency's ongoing scrutiny of household products; consumers can report incidents via SaferProducts.gov or the CPSC hotline at 800-638-2772.
