Approximately 914,430 Crock-Pot 6-Quart Express Crock Multi-Cookers (Model SCCPPC600-V1) have been recalled because the unit can build up pressure even when the lid is not fully locked. This defect can cause the lid to suddenly detach while in use, ejecting hot food and liquids and posing a severe burn hazard. Sunbeam Products has received 119 reports of lid detachment, resulting in 99 burn injuries ranging from first-degree to third-degree burns. These units were sold at Walmart, Target, Amazon, and other retailers nationwide from July 2017 through November 2020 for between $70 and $100.
The multi-cooker can pressurize when the lid is not securely locked, leading to the lid suddenly blowing off and spraying hot contents onto nearby consumers. This has already resulted in nearly 100 reported burn injuries, some of which were severe third-degree burns.
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.
