ITHACA, NY (607NewsNow) – Several Thermos products are being recalled.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the stopper tops of three models of Thermos’ food and beverage bottles can forcefully eject if they contain perishable items.

The recall applies to Thermos Stainless King Food Jars with model numbers SK3000 and SK3020, manufactured before July 2023, as well as all Thermos Sportsman Food & Beverage Bottles with model number SK3010. They were sold in a variety of colors and sizes of 16 oz., 24 oz., and 40 oz. models. The affected models are missing a pressure relief mechanism in the center of the top.

There have been 27 reports from customers who were hit by an ejected top, including 3 who suffered permanent vision loss. Approximately 8.2 million were sold in-store and online at Walmart, Target, and other national retailers, as well as Amazon.com and Thermos.com, between March 2008 and July 2024.

Customers should stop using the recalled products immediately and contact Thermos for a free replacement top or bottle, depending on the model.
