Over 1 Million Igloo Coolers Recalled, Including In WA, CA, & OR

This is not something to look forward to at any time of year, but when people are getting sick of winter, and looking forward to good weather and camping season, it gets even worse.

One of the most trusted names in coolers is the subject of a major recall and for a frightening reason too.

Possible crushing and finger amputation!

It's one thing when you hear news of a cybertruck cutting off a finger, but when it is a cooler for your drinks? What the heck!?!?

Over 1 Million Igloo Cooler Recall Notice

According to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), a recall was issued for Igloo coolers including the 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers on February 13th, 2025.

When I first heard about this, and the reason of the recall, (pinching and possible finger amputation) I assumed it was from the lid, and I thought that was always a hazard.

Anything with a closable lid has that hazard, but no, it is a from a different part of the cooler: the handle!

Igloo Cooler Recall: Hazard

"The tow handle can pinch consumers’ fingertips against the cooler, posing fingertip amputation and crushing hazards." - CPSC.gov

This might seem comical, unless you're one of the reported injuries who suffered "fingertip injuries, including fingertip amputations, bone fractures, and lacerations."
