Popular cooler brand issues recall after more than 25 reports of fingertip amputations
Igloo is expanding a recall of its coolers because the tow handle can pinch consumers’ fingertips against the cooler, creating the potential for finger crushing or amputations.
According to an alert from the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the recall expansion involves an additional 130,000 Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers manufactured prior to January 2024.
The date of manufacture is imprinted on the bottom of the cooler in a circular pattern with an arrow pointing to the month of manufacture and the last two digits of the year of manufacture inside the circle.

The recalled coolers have a tow handle, and “IGLOO” is printed on the side. The coolers were sold in multiple body and lid color combinations and the model number is located on labels at the bottom of the cooler.
The coolers were sold at Costco, Target, Academy, Dick’s, and other stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com, Igloocoolers.com, and other websites from January 2019 through January 2025 for between $80 and $140.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled coolers and contact Igloo for a free replacement handle.
