Nexgrill Recalls 10.2 Million Grill Brushes After Wire Bristles Found in Food, Throats

Nexgrill recalled about 10.2 million grill brushes after 68 reports of bristles detaching including five cases requiring medical treatment, highlighting a serious ingestion risk.

  • On Thursday, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced a recall of 10.2 million Nexgrill wire grill brushes sold at Home Depot stores and online from 2015 through 2026.
  • Nexgrill is aware of at least 68 reports where bristles detached from brushes, including five cases where consumers swallowed metal pieces and required medical treatment to remove them.
  • Six models of Nexgrill-branded brushes are affected, including 530-0024 and 530-0042, which feature black plastic or wood handles measuring between 18 and 21 inches long.
  • Consumers should immediately stop using the brushes and contact Nexgrill to obtain a registration code, then upload a photograph to the recall website to receive a refund as a gift card.
  • Meghan Martin, a pediatric emergency medicine physician at Johns Hopkins All Children, advises switching to non-wire tools to avoid injury, following Weber's recall of 3.2 million brushes last month.
