Your favorite viral water bottle might be a 'burn hazard' – Stanley recalls 2.6 million travel mugs, find out if you're affected

Stanley has issued an urgent recall of their viral travel mugs across North America. According to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), some Stanley cups were found to have faulty lids, which can shrink when exposed to heat and pressure. This means mug lids can detach while in use, 'posing a burn hazard'.

Stanley has received a total of 91 reports, including 16 in the US, of faulty lids. With 38 known burn injuries, and 11 consumers requiring medical attention, Stanley recommends that 'consumers should immediately stop using the recalled travel mugs and contact Stanley to receive a free replacement lid.'
