Igloo Recalls more than 1 Million 90 Quart Rolling Coolers

Watch those fingers! It appears Igloo has corrected this known issue over a year ago. However there are still a lot of coolers out there.

Just put some ice on them, you'll be fine.

I struggle to see how a cooler could cause a finger amputation? It could probably roll over your toes as well?

Yeah, but I guess the cooler clearly was not "idiot proof".

our chief of administration literally just purchased that same cooler last month. I will have to notify her maybe I'll get one of those "near miss" safety bonus checks. lol

Absolutely nothing is "idiot proof", because idiots are proven to be quite ingenious.

I want one……

Idiot proof isn't a thing. There will always be a better idiot.

After 50 years experience in industry, I no longer believe you can make anything idiot proof. Idiot resistant is about the best you can achieve. There has been a death of common sense I n the country.

Thank God we have the CPSC. I never would have made it this far without them.

I would guess that after the recall is issued only a few thousand people would take them back and the company is off the hook for the rest.

Odd but.....
It seems the recall was only necessary for the USA. Key word being "necessary".
We're special.

Have they issued the recall for all those defective cars that keep falling off of jacks?

They are also recalled in Canada.

The vast majority of this model was sold in USA. About 5% were exported to Canada and a few sold in Mexico.
