Title: 8.2 Million Thermos Recalled Due to Explosion Hazard.
Post by: ghostguy6 on April 30, 2026, 10:25:29 PM
Hopefully this is the right place to post this.

I figured  I would post this since there are probably a few of these in the possession of the members here.

QuoteRecall Details
Description:

This recall involves Thermos Stainless King Food Jars with model numbers SK3000 and SK3020, manufactured before July 2023 and all Thermos Sportsman Food & Beverage Bottles with model number SK3010. The stopper of the recalled Food Jars and Food & Beverage Bottles does not have a pressure relief in the center. The containers were sold in a variety of colors in sizes of 16-oz, model number SK3000, 24-oz, model number SK3020, and 40-oz, model number SK3010. The Thermos trademark is located on the side of the product. The model numbers are printed on the bottom of the recalled containers.
Remedy:

Consumers should stop using the recalled Food Jars and Bottles immediately and contact Thermos to receive a free replacement pressure relief stopper or replacement Bottle, depending on the model. For recalled 3000 and 3020 Food Jars, consumers will be asked to throw away the stopper and send a photo of the disposed stopper to Thermos. For recalled 3010 Bottles, consumers will be asked to return their recalled Bottle to Thermos using a prepaid shipping label.
Incidents/Injuries:

Thermos has received 27 reports of consumers who were struck by a stopper that forcefully ejected from these containers upon opening, including complaints of impact and laceration injuries requiring medical attention. Three consumers suffered permanent vision loss after being struck in the eye.

Ozark Trail had a similar recall last year as well. Pretty much the same scenario with their bottles as Thermos is dealing with now.

I can think of more dangerous products that haven't been recalled.

RULE #2: never point a champaign bottle at anything you don't intend to destroy.
