More than 1.2M Igloo coolers recalled due to finger amputation danger
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has expanded a recall for Igloo 90 Qt. rolling coolers due to the danger of crushing or amputating users' fingertips.
The tow handle of the Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow rolling coolers can pinch customers' fingertips against the cooler, causing injury or possibly amputation.
About 130,000 additional coolers that were sold in Canada and Mexico are included in the expansion of the recall. More than one million of the coolers that were sold in the United States were previously recalled in February. In total, there are now nearly 1.2 million of the coolers recalled.
You can see the model numbers of the coolers in the recall expansion here and the model numbers of the original recalled coolers that were sold in the US here.
Users should stop using the cooler and immediately contact Igloo for a replacement handle.

Costco CEO hints at major change members will love
Plenty of retailers claim to care about customers. But Costco actually proves it. Unlike other retailers, membership fees are a big part of Costco's revenue. For this reason, the company goes out of its way to continuously examine and enhance the member experience. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Costco's return policy, for example, is one of the most generous in all of retail. With few exceptions, customers can bring back any item at any time for a refund, even if it's been months since the date of purchase. Related: Costco quietly drops popular product, saddens fans Costco also strives to offer members the lowest prices possible. To that end, the company is very particular about what it puts on its shelves. If Costco can't source an item at a price it's happy with, the company will either pass or create its own low-cost version under the Kirkland label. Costco's free samples are another example of going above and beyond for customers. Granted, part of the goal is to tempt customers to buy more products by letting them try things for free. But it's still a nice perk you don't tend to see at other stores. One of the biggest benefits of joining Costco is getting to save money on gas. Costco is known for having some of the best gas prices in town. And Costco's gas is not only affordable, but also high in quality. Related: Costco brings back food court favorite, but members aren't happy The Kirkland Signature Gasoline sold at Costco fuel stations has the TOP TIER designation. This means it's formulated to keep engines clean and lead to better performance. Earlier this year, Costco made the decision to extend its gas station hours. Now, most Costco fuel stations are open from: 6 a.m to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Saturdays6 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Sundays These hours go well beyond normal warehouse club hours so that members can fill up their cars early in the day or later at night. Not surprisingly, during the company's most recent earnings call, Costco reported that members started buying more gas once fuel stations began opening earlier and closing later. While Costco has a clear plan in place to both retain and attract members, the company is constantly reevaluating its strategy. And during the company's most recent earnings call, CEO Ron Vachris said that given the great results that came from extending gas station hours, the management team would consider expanding warehouse club hours overall. "We continue to look at the hours as well," he said. Vachris and other Costco executives know that now more than ever, consumers need access to savings at every turn. Related: Costco makes key moves to protect prices from tariffs The combination of lingering inflation and tariff threats has a lot of people on edge, and they're looking for ways to stretch their paychecks as much as possible. To that end, Costco has pledged to do what it can to shield members from tariffs. During the third quarter of the year, Vachris said that Costco "rerouted many goods sourced from countries with large tariff exposure to our non-U.S. markets." But extending warehouse club hours is another way to not only enhance the member experience, but also make it easier for members to access affordable products they need. Although Costco warehouse club stores tend to be open pretty late during the week, many locations don't open until 9:30 a.m. or 10 a.m. on weekdays. These hours may be suitable for people who are home during the day, but they're not particularly worker-friendly.
