If you bought a window air conditioner from Costco in the last few years, you might want to give it a good look. The membership-only retailer has just issued a recall on two different window air conditioners along with several other big ticket items that could prove to be a safety risk, and some of the recalled products should stop being used immediately.
Costco recalled all Danby brand U-shaped air conditioners that were sold between June 10, 2021, and February 2, 2022, as well as Midea brand U-shaped window air conditioners sold between June 2021 and May 2025. The company has asked customers to discontinue use of these products "immediately" due to issues with water pooling underneath the units as they are not draining quickly enough. This presents a "risk of mold growth." Customers who wish to have the issue repaired can be sent a free repair kit from Costco which would include a new drain plug and bubble level, depending on the model. Customers can also reach out to Costco to get a full or prorated refund, based on the purchase date or the date of the unit's manufacture.
There have been several other items recalled by Costco as well, including Anker power banks, which are used for portable charging. There is a potential risk factor with these power banks, which were sold between June 1, 2016 and Dec. 31, 2022, due to the possibility that they "may overheat, posing a potential fire safety risk," which "could lead to melting of plastic components, smoke or fire," per the recall. Anyone who has purchased one of these power banks can reach out for a refund or a replacement with a photo of the product showing the serial number on the back, model number, date the photo was taken, and the word "recalled" written on the power bank in permanent marker.
Costco has also recalled Bridgestone Blizzak 6 tires and Michelin Agilis CrossClimate C-Metric tires. The Bridgetstone tires were sold as replacement tires only and "do not bear the DOT certification symbol on the tire sidewalls and therefore do not comply with tire marking requirements in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 139," per the recall, while the Michelin tires were recalled as "chunks of tread rubber may detach from the shoulder block."
Other Costco items that have been recalled include the 18 packs of Topo Chico Mineral Water Glass, Igloo 90 Qt Flip & Tow Rolling Cooler, Ninja Foodi Pressure Cooker + Air Fryer, Segway Ninebot Electric Kickscooter and the Sublue Underwater Scooter. There were also select Kirkland Signature Severe Cold & Flu items added to the recall, as well as multiple products from Fresh and Ready Foods Prepared Sandwiches and Salads. Finally, Bowflex 552 adjustable dumbbells were recalled "due to reports that the weight plates can dislodge from the handle during use, posing an impact hazard."
