Calphalon is recalling approximately 328,000 pizza wheel cutters because the handle can unexpectedly detach during use. There have been 11 reported incidents, including six reports of finger lacerations where one victim required stitches and another received medical attention to close wounds. These pizza wheels were sold nationwide at stores like Target, Walmart, and Bed Bath & Beyond, as well as online at amazon.com, between January 2006 and August 2015 for about $15. Consumers should immediately stop using these pizza cutters and contact Calphalon for a full refund.
The handle of the pizza cutter can break or detach from the metal blade assembly while in use. If the handle separates while a consumer is applying pressure to cut, their hand can slide forward onto the sharp circular blade, causing deep lacerations.
Consumers should immediately stop using the pizza wheel and contact Calphalon for a full refund.
