Costco has announced that there is a safety issue with the Igloo 90 Qt Flip & Tow Rolling Cooler, which could lead to “fingertip amputation and crushing hazards” due to a defect in the tow handle.

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a recall on February 13, 2025, with about 1,060,000 units affected in the US alone.

“The firm has received 12 reports of fingertip injuries, including fingertip amputations, bone fractures, and lacerations,” CPSC reported.

An additional 47,000 units were sold in Canada and 23,000 in Mexico, bringing the total recall to more than 1.1 million coolers.

Recalled coolers were sold at Costco, Target, Academy, Dick’s, and other stores nationwide.

It was also sold online at Amazon.com, Igloocoolers.com, and other websites.

The affected coolers were sold between January 2019 through January 2025 and cost between $80 and $140.

The warning applies to units sold nationwide at Costco stores and through other retailers.

The company says the recall applies to coolers manufactured before 2024, with a date code of 2023 or earlier printed on the bottom.

In a letter sent to Costco members, Igloo urged customers to immediately stop using the cooler and visit its website to check eligibility

In multiple cases, consumers are being urged to stop using the products immediately.
