Thermos Recalls 8.2 Million Containers Due to Safety Risks
Thermos has recalled over 8 million of its Stainless King Food Jars and Bottles following reports of safety hazards. The recall affects three models: the Stainless King Food Jar, 40-ounce Sportsman Food & Beverage Bottle, and 24-ounce Stainless King Food Jar. The issue arises from stoppers without a pressure-release mechanism, which can cause the stopper to eject forcefully when gas builds up inside the sealed container. This defect has resulted in 27 reports of injuries, including three cases of permanent vision loss. The recall covers products sold at major retailers like Target, Walmart, and Amazon.
