Stanley recalls 2.6M Switchback and Trigger Action travel mugs due to burn hazard

(WAND) - Stanley is recalling 2.6 million Switchback and Trigger Action stainless steel travel mugs due to them being a burn hazard.

The mugs were sold in the United States.

The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission said the mugs' lid threads can shrink when exposed to heat and torque, causing the lid to detach during use, posing a burn hazard.

Stanley has received 91 reports worldwide, including 16 in the U.S., of the recalled travel mugs’ lids detaching during use, resulting in 38 burn injuries worldwide, including two burn injuries in the U.S., with 11 consumers worldwide requiring medical attention.

The mugs were sold at Amazon.com, Walmart, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Target and other stores nationwide and online from June 2016 through December 2024 for between $20 and $50, depending on the model.

The recalled double-walled mugs were sold in a variety of colors including white, black and green, in 12 oz., 16 oz. and 20 oz. sizes with a polypropylene lid.

The Stanley logo appears on the front and bottom of the mug.

The recalled mugs have one of the following product identification numbers printed on the bottom of the mug.
