About the Sunbeam Pressure Cooker Recall

According to the recall notice filed with the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, the recalled Crock-Pot multi-cooker can pressurize when the lid is not fully locked. This can cause the lid to suddenly detach while the product is in use, posing burn risks to consumers from hot food and liquids ejected from the product.

What Should Consumers Do If They Have A Recalled Crock-Pot Multi-Cooker?

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Crock-Pot in pressure cooker mode, but may continue to use for slow cooking and sautéing. Consumers should contact Crock-Pot immediately to obtain a free replacement lid. Consumers who continue using the multi-cooker in pressure cooker mode while waiting for the replacement lid should be certain the lid is securely turned to the fully locked position by aligning the arrow on the lid with the lock symbol on the base.

Where Were the Recalled Crock-Pot Multi-Cookers Sold?

The CPSC recall notice says that these cookers were sold at Walmart, Target and other retail stores nationwide and online at Amazon and other online retailers from July 2017 through November 2020 for between $70 to $100. These pressure cookers may have also been purchased at Bed, Bath and Beyond, Kohls, Best Buy, and other retailers.
