More than one million grill brushes have been recalled after frightening reports emerged of people accidentally swallowing the tool’s loose metal bristles.
More than one million grill brushes have been recalled after frightening reports emerged of people accidentally swallowing the tool’s loose metal bristles. The US Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the massive recall – which impacts nearly 1.75 million Cuisinart metal wire-bristle grill brushes sold since 2009 – after Conair received at least 54 reports of the bristles falling off and sticking to grill grates or food.
People have accidentally swallowed the tool’s loose metal bristles, according to reports. In three terrifying cases, people swallowed the metal pieces – and the patients needed medical attention to remove them. The impacted models – all of which are baton-shaped with black plastic, stainless steel or wooden handles – pose an ingestion hazard and “risk of serious injuries that could require surgery,” the CPSC wrote in its recall notice.
People who own the recalled models – which run between $8 and $20 and were sold at retailers including Burlington, TJ Maxx, Ross and through Amazon and Cuisinart’s websites – should discard them and contact Conair for a refund, according to the notice.
