Over 2 million pressure cookers recalled after dozens of consumers suffer injuries
A popular appliance manufacturer is recalling more than 2 million pressure cookers after receiving over 100 reports of injuries. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall on Thursday. The recall only pertains to Ninja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers, though all models are included in the recall. At least 106 burn injuries have been reported so far – and a quarter of those have led to lawsuits. "SharkNinja has received 106 reports of burn injuries, including more than 50 reports of second- or third-degree burns to the face or body, with 26 lawsuits filed," the CPSC's report noted. "Consumers should immediately stop using the product's pressure-cooking function and contact SharkNinja for a free replacement lid." SharkNinja confirmed the recall in a statement provided to Fox News Digital. "The safety of our customers is a top priority for SharkNinja," the company said. "In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, Ninja is conducting a recall to replace the lid on certain Ninja-brand 'Foodi' multi-function cookers in the OP300 model family." "This addresses reports that some consumers have been able to open the pressure-cooking lids of certain units of these cookers during use, resulting in burn injuries from hot contents." There were 1,846,400 pressure cookers that have been recalled in the United States, while 184,240 were sold in Canada. The following model numbers, which are visible on the cooker's side label, are included in the recall: OP300, OP301, OP301A, OP302, OP302BRN, OP302HCN, OP302HAQ, OP302HW, OP302HB, OP305, OP305CO and OP350CO. The appliances have pressure-cooking and air-frying functions and boast a 6.5-quart capacity, according to the CPSC. Consumers can still use the appliance's air-frying option, said the CPSC. The cookers were sold at Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, Amazon and Target and were available to buy online from Amazon, Sam's Club and Costco. The appliances, which were manufactured in China, retailed for about $200.

More than 1.8 million SharkNinja pressure cookers recalled after over 100 burn reports

Why the Ninja Foodi indoor grill instantly earned a spot in my kitchen - and how you can snag it for $20 off
It's rare to find a kitchen appliance that truly does it all. Even rarer is one that actually lives up to those claims. If you're looking to level up in the kitchen, you won't find a better companion than the Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill. I put this six-in-one powerhouse to the test and I can confirm that it does not disappoint. Yes, it's an indoor grill, but it can also air fry, bake, roast, broil, and dehydrate virtually anything. Ninja Foodi Smart XL Grill Whether you're whipping up weeknight dinners or tackling meal prep, this indoor grill delivers delicious results with minimal effort. The smart thermometer ensures your food is perfectly cooked every time, while Smoke Control Technology keeps your kitchen fresh. With easy cleanup and a 'just-right' size, this multifunctional appliance grills, air fries, bakes, roasts, broils, and dehydrates. Enter WELCOME20 at checkout to score $20 off your order. $239.99 (save $20) Shop It's an amazing deal right now, too. While it retails for $259.99, new customers can snap it up for $20 off when you enter code WELCOME20 at checkout. Getting the grill set up was a breeze. With a quick rinse of the removable parts in warm, soapy water and a look through the manual, I had it up and running. I was especially impressed by its size — at 15.75 inches long by 16.54 inches wide, it's not too big or too small — and the way it didn't overwhelm my counter space. I started by grilling some asparagus, and was thrilled with how quickly (and perfectly!) it did the job. The Ninja Foodi's Cyclonic Grilling Technology rapidly circulates hot air around the food, giving it that perfect char on the outside while keeping it tender on the inside. And, yes, it's 'smart' — which means even if you know nothing about cooking you can probably make this work for you. It features an intuitive display with four protein settings and six doneness levels, significantly simplifying food prep. It also has a built-in thermometer to take the guesswork out of your efforts. Issues like undercooked and overcooked are things of the past. No more poking, prodding, or frantic taste-testing to make sure dinner's done! After making the asparagus, I tossed in some fries to test out the Air Crisp function. They came out golden and crispy with minimal oil — perfection literally within minutes and with the added bonus of less grease and fat. Ninja designed the Foodi with advanced Smoke Control Technology, which is huge for an indoor grill. There wasn't a trace of lingering smoke in the kitchen, so there was no need to crack open the window to clear it out. If you're incredibly busy and find yourself pressed for time to prepare meals from scratch, the Ninja Foodi Smart XL can make your life so much simpler. While it easily handles weeknight staples like grilled chicken, salmon, and vegetables, shoppers also rave about its versatility. 'My dream machine,' says one reviewer. 'I LOVE it. It cooks everything perfectly, it's so easy to use, and importantly it's easy to clean as well. I have baked brownies, roasted a small roast, baked lasagna, grilled ribs, and air fried just about everything. Excellent quality.' With enough room to accommodate up to six steaks at once, it can comfortably feed a family or make meal prepping for the week a breeze. Plus, the removable grill grate, crisper basket, and cooking pot are all dishwasher-safe, so cleanup is equally easy. The price is just right for a device that brings restaurant-quality results directly to your home kitchen.

'I use my air fryer way more': These silicone liners are just $10 a pair
Not to be dramatic, but air fryers are the best thing since sliced bread. The beloved multitaskers make getting dinner on the table mind-blowingly fast and easy and they're also fun to use. The not-so-fun thing about air fryers, though? The cleanup. Thank god for nonstick silicone liners — and this popular set from Amazon can get your air fryer clean in a snap. As far as low-maintenance appliances go, you can't really beat the air fryer. But just like anything else, if you use it regularly, it's going to get schmutzed-up. If you've ever hand-washed an air fryer basket, you know how gross it can get — and if you'd rather not have to periodically dig burnt crumbs out of the bottom or put your basket at risk of rusting, air fryer basket liners are a great way to save yourself the headache of cleaning. Paper liners are popular, but if you want something reusable, these silicone liners can be wiped clean, or tossed in the dishwasher for messier kitchen projects. They're nonstick and, being silicone, you can spread the easy-cleaning joy to your microwave, too. However you use them, they'll make the entire mealtime production even easier. More than 4,400 Amazon shoppers rave about how dreamy cleaning is with these liners. "Can't live without these if you have an air fryer," raved this not-hyperbolic-at-all fan. "Keeps [the] air fryer basket clean. No need to wash the air fryer basket with these — just give it a wipe. No more rusting air fryer basket!" "The only thing I don't like about my air fryer is having to clean it," groaned this gourmand. "This eliminates that issue. The food still got crispy just like if I cooked it without this." "These are awesome!" said another rave reviewer. "I use my air fryer way more since I bought these!" "[My] first impression was that [the] product is a little smaller than expected, but [it] turned out to fit just right into the Ninja Foodi," wrote a happy cook. "I was a little reluctant to use the fryer for greasy and otherwise messy stuff; now I can just empty the liner after use and either handwash or pop it into the dishwasher and give a quick wipe to the fryer and [it's] ready to go again. Really encourages me to get the fullest use of my Foodi." "Why didn't I think about buying these earlier?!" wrote a fan. "They work perfectly; I kinda wish they were a tad bit larger, but they are just fine for my bucket air fryer. You can prepare multiple items without having to clean the unit after each item." Looking to expand your air-frying horizons? This handy flip-cookbook can be your go-to guide from appetizers to desserts. If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course.
