According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), nearly 1.3 million coolers are being recalled by Igloo Products Corp., of Katy, Texas. There is concern that "the tow handle can pinch consumers' fingertips against the cooler, posing fingertip amputation and crushing hazards."
The recall was originally announced in February 2025 and affected roughly 1,130,000 "Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers" sold in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. As of May 8, the recall was expanded to include an additional 155,900 units.
As stated in the report, Igloo has received 78 reports of fingertip injuries, including 26 resulting in fingertip amputations, bone fractures, or lacerations.
The recalled coolers have a tow handle, with "Igloo" printed on the side. They were sold in multiple body and lid color combinations. The model numbers, listed on the brand's recall page and in the CPSC alerts from February and May, are located on labels affixed to the bottom of the coolers. Further identifying information is as follows:
Product Name: Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled coolers and contact Igloo for a free replacement handle. As an added precaution, Igloo urges general safety around cooler "pinch points...[near] handles, latches, hinges, lids, and other moving components."

6 things to consider when buying a bike helmet

If you're planning to start cycling more, you need one of the best bike helmets, it's as simple as that. The extra protection you get from a helmet can make all the difference in a crash, and some helmets can now even help to prevent collisions. To get the inside track on everything you need to know about bike helmets, we spoke to Juan Garcia Mansilla, co-founder of UNIT 1, a company that makes smart bike helmets and other cycling accessories. Here's what you need to consider when buying your bike helmet. Price is an obvious place to start, because you might well have a budget available to spend on your bike helmet. 'Prices vary a lot,' says Mansilla. 'You'll find basic helmets starting around $30. More advanced options — those with better materials, more features, or higher safety certifications — can go up to $300 or more. 'In our case, smart helmets with integrated lighting, MIPS [Multi-directional Impact Protection System], crash alerts and other features usually fall in the $150–$230 range.' Bike helmets have to hit certain safety standards depending on where you live, and this is the first thing you should check with any helmet you're considering, especially if you're looking at cheaper helmets. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. 'In the U.S., the standard is CPSC,' says Mansilla. 'In Europe, it's EN-1078. Both were developed for traditional cycling speeds up to around 15.5 mph/25 km/h. 'For higher-impact protection, there's NTA-8776, a newer and more demanding certification created in the Netherlands, specifically with e-bikes and faster urban riding in mind. 'It tests for impacts up to 28 mph/ 45 km/h. No matter how fast you actually ride, a helmet that's NTA-certified offers a higher safety margin, full stop. 'For additional assurance, some riders also look to independent testing like the Virginia Tech Helmet Ratings, which assess real-world impact scenarios.' Once you've found a helmet that fits your budget and the required safety standard, you need to make sure it's comfortable and fits well — if the helmet is loose, it will reduce how effective it is during impacts. If you ride in hot countries, it's also worth making sure that the helmet has good airflow so it doesn't get uncomfortably sweaty during longer rides. Helmets will work for all kinds of cycling, but there are different features you should prioritize depending on whether you're likely to be riding on the road or trails. 'Road cyclists typically look for something lightweight with maximum ventilation,' says Mansilla. 'Mountain bikers need more head coverage and durability. Urban helmets tend to be cleaner in design, with moderate airflow and visibility-focused features. Technically, any helmet can work across contexts, but one that's built for your type of riding will always perform better.' Bike helmets are getting smarter all the time, and if you have a bigger budget, you can get features that enhance your safety and ride experience. 'Our [UNIT 1's] helmets, for example, include integrated front and rear lights, turn signals, brake lights, a magnetic buckle for ease of use and crash alerts that send your location to an emergency contact if you fall,' says Mansilla. 'These tools are designed to help you avoid collisions and get help faster if one happens.' This is something to consider after you've bought your helmet — when should you think about buying another one? 'After any crash, the helmet should be replaced, even if it looks fine,' says Mansilla. 'Impact can compromise the inner structure in ways you can't see. 'Without a crash, most helmets need to be replaced every three to four years, depending on use. UV exposure, rain, sweat and general wear all break down the materials over time.'
