Stanley is recalling about 2.6 million Switchback and Trigger Action stainless steel travel mugs because the lid threads can shrink when exposed to heat and torque. This defect can cause the lid to suddenly detach during use, creating a burn hazard for consumers using hot liquids. The company has received 91 reports of the lids detaching worldwide, resulting in 38 burn injuries, with 11 people requiring medical attention. The mugs were sold in white, black, and green colors in 12 oz., 16 oz., and 20 oz. sizes at major retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and Target between June 2016 and December 2024. Stanley is providing free replacement lids to all affected customers.
The lid threads on these mugs can shrink under high heat and pressure, causing the lid to pop off and spill hot contents. Stanley has reported 38 burn injuries worldwide, including two in the United States, due to this defect.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled travel mugs and contact Stanley to receive a free replacement lid, including shipping.
