More Than 2 Million Pressure Cookers Recalled After More Than 100 Injury Reports

In early May, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a critical recall for the SharkNinja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers. 

According to the recall notice, SharkNinja received 106 reports of “burn injuries, including more than 50 reports of second- or third-degree burns to the face or body, with 26 lawsuits filed” before recalling all Ninja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers, totaling approximately 1,846,400 units, along with an additional 184,240 units recalled in Canada.

The company shared in a statement with CNN that “The safety of our customers is a top priority for SharkNinja.” It added that the burns occurred after some consumers were “able to open the pressure-cooking lids of certain units of these cookers during use, resulting in burn injuries from hot contents.”

The cookers, the recall added, “have functions that include pressure cooking and air frying” and were sold in only a black color with a 6.5-quart capacity. The cookers are easily identifiable, as they have “Ninja” printed on the front of the unit as well as on the product label.

The model numbers in the recall include OP300, OP301, OP301A, OP302, OP302BRN, OP302HCN, OP302HAQ, OP302HW, OP302HB, OP305, OP305CO, and OP350CO. The model numbers can be found printed on a label on the side of the cooker. The recall notice in Canada also added that it includes “any replacement pressure-cooking lids for these models that consumers may have purchased from SharkNinja separately as service parts.” 

“Consumers should immediately stop using the product’s pressure-cooking function and contact SharkNinja for a free replacement lid,” the recall noted. Anyone who has purchased one of the recalled models can contact SharkNinja at 888-370-1733 or [email protected] to receive a replacement lid. However, as customers wait for a replacement lid, the notice added that they can safely “continue to use the product’s air frying and other functions.” 

The pressure cookers were sold at Walmart, Costco, Sam’s Club, and Target stores, as well as through their websites nationwide, on Amazon, and via Ninjakitchen.com. The units were on sale from January 2019 to March 2025 for approximately $200.
