More Igloo coolers recalled after 26 fingertip amputations

  • Igloo Products Corp. Has broadened its May 2025 recall to cover nearly 1.3 million rolling coolers with tow handles, citing risks of fingertip injuries in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
  • The recall follows an initial February 2025 announcement after reports showed the tow handle can pinch and crush fingers, causing amputations and serious injuries.
  • The recalled Igloo coolers, purchased from early 2019 through early 2025 at stores like Costco, Target, Academy Sports + Outdoors, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and various online retailers, have been linked to 78 fingertip injury reports.
  • The Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a warning that the tow handle on the cooler can trap consumers' fingertips, creating a risk of severe injuries such as amputations, crushing, fractures, or cuts, with 26 reported cases involving these types of harm.
  • Individuals who own the affected coolers are advised to discontinue their use immediately and reach out to Igloo at 888-943-5182 toll-free to obtain a complimentary replacement handle or repair kit to help avoid further injuries.
