The recall concerns the SharkNinja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers over serious burn concerns.
The notice published by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission on Thursday notes that the "pressure-cooking lid can be opened during use, causing hot contents to escape, posing a risk of burn injuries to consumers."
SharkNinja has received 106 burn injury reports, with more than 50 reports for second or third-degree burns to the face or body. The notice states that 26 lawsuits have been filed.
'The safety of our customers is a top priority for SharkNinja,' the company said in a statement released to The Associated Press.
The product was sold across a variety of stores, including Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, Amazon and Target nationwide and online from January 2019 through March 2025. It retailed for about $200.
To double-check your model, look for the following model numbers printed on a label on the side of the cooker: OP300, OP301, OP301A, OP302, OP302BRN, OP302HCN, OP302HAQ, OP302HW, OP302HB, OP305, OP305CO and OP350CO
Consumers who are in possession of the recalled item are being told to immediately stop using the pressure-cooking function and contact SharkNinja to receive a free replacement lid. The other functions, including air frying, remain safe to use.
To contact SharkNinja, you can call the toll-free number at 888-370-1733 from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. ET Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Saturday. You can also send an email or fill out a form online.
