The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada recently announced a voluntary recall of the 11,000 Glass Water Bottles in the United States and 1,200 in Canada imported by Starbucks.
The glass water bottle and/or its stopper is a hazard because it can shatter when the consumer removes or inserts the stopper. This creates a laceration concern for consumers. Indeed, the recall was prompted by 10 reports of either glass stoppers or water bottles shattering, including eight reports of hand lacerations.
The recalled 20-ounce clear glass water bottles have a SKU number 11003503 and the work “Glass Water Bottle” printed on a blue label affixed to the bottle.
Consumers should stop using these glasses immediately and return them to Starbucks for a full refund and complimentary drink of any size.
If you were injured by one of these water bottles, feel free to contact the San Diego defective product attorneys at the Law Office of Harold D. Thompson at 619-615-0767 for a free case evaluation.
