SharkNinja Recalls 1.8M Pressure Cookers, Adds Lids

SharkNinja has recalled over 1.8 million Ninja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers in the U.S. and nearly 200,000 in Canada due to a defect that allows the pressure-cooking lid to open while in use, causing hot contents to escape and posing a serious burn risk. The recall also includes replacement OP300-series pressure cooker lids sold separately. The Consumer Product Safety Commission has received 106 reports of burn injuries, with over 50 involving second- or third-degree burns and 26 lawsuits filed. Affected cookers are black, have a 6.5-quart capacity, and include models such as OP300, OP301, and OP305, sold between January 2019 and March 2025 at Walmart, Costco, Sam’s Club, Target, Amazon, and the Ninja website. Consumers are urged to stop using the pressure-cooking function and contact SharkNinja for a free replacement lid, while other functions like air frying remain safe. SharkNinja is cooperating with U.S. and Canadian authorities and has provided hotlines and online forms for customers to request replacements.
