January 28, 2010 – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Health Canada, in cooperation with Starbucks Coffee Company, of Seattle, Wash., today announced a voluntary recall of Glass Water Bottles.
This recall involves clear glass water bottles with SKU number 11003503. The 20-ounce water bottles have the words “Glass Water Bottle” printed on a blue label affixed to the bottle.
The glass water bottle and/or its stopper can shatter when the consumer is removing or inserting the stopper, posing a laceration hazard to consumers.
The firm has received 10 reports of either glass stoppers or water bottles shattering, including eight reports of hand lacerations.
Approximately 13,200 water bottles were sold in the U.S. and Canada at Starbucks company-operated stores and at Starbucks locations in Safeway and Target stores nationwide during January 2010 for about $9.
Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.
