Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Hamilton Beach has recalled about 790 Hamilton Beach bébé brand baby food makers in the U.S. (and an additional 3,100 in Canada). The slicing and shredding disc accessory can cause a stainless steel pin in the food bowl lid to loosen and fall into processed food, creating a serious safety risk for infants. The affected product is a small food processor with a white and gray base, an orange control knob, and a clear five-cup bowl. Consumers should immediately stop using the slicing/shredding disc and contact Hamilton Beach for a free replacement kit.

Risk

When using the slicing/shredding disc with the motor shaft adapter, a metal pin in the lid can break off and fall into the baby food. Hamilton Beach has received four reports of the pin loosening, including three instances where the metal pin was actually found in the processed food.

What You Should Do

  1. Locate your Hamilton Beach bébé brand baby food maker and identify if you have the gray food bowl lid with the built-in food chute and the metal slicing/shredding disc accessory.
  2. Immediately stop using the slicing/shredding disc and the motor shaft adapter provided with the unit.
  3. Check your processed food for any metal fragments if you have used the slicing/shredding disc recently.
  4. Contact Hamilton Beach to receive a free replacement food bowl lid, motor shaft adapter, and slicing/shredding disc by calling (800) 672-5872 Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. ET.
  5. Visit www.hamiltonbeach.com and click on the 'Recall Info' link at the bottom of the page to register for your replacement parts online.
  6. You may continue to safely use the baby food maker for steaming, chopping, and pureeing functions while waiting for your replacement parts, as long as the slicing/shredding disc is not used.
