Summary

Crate and Barrel is recalling approximately 17,000 Holiday Bear Acrylic Milk Bottles because the included plastic straw can crack or break during use. If the straw breaks, it creates sharp edges that pose a laceration hazard to the user. The clear acrylic bottles are 5.5 inches tall and feature a graphic of a bear wearing a red sweater with a yellow snowflake. These were sold at Crate and Barrel stores and online from August 2018 through November 2018 for about $5. Consumers should stop using these bottles immediately and contact the company for a full refund.
