Cooler Recall: Igloo Recalls More Than a Million Coolers Over Fingertip Amputation Risk

If you plan to go out of town for the long weekend, you may want to double-check what you packed for the trip. You’ve probably gotten rid of your recalled canned tuna and recalled milk, but now you need to see what kind of cooler you’re bringing.

Igloo just issued a recall of more than 1 million coolers after reports of serious finger injuries. It might be time to invest in a new cooler if you own one of the models that’s been recalled.

What caused the recall?

The recalled models are all Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers that you can tow with a handle. This specific handle has been linked to 12 different incidents of fingertip injuries, including lacerations, bone fractures and even fingertip amputation. So, needless to say, this is a big deal, and it’s important to make sure you don’t have one of the recalled coolers.

In total, Igloo recalled about 1,060,000 coolers in the U.S. plus 47,000 in Canada and 23,000 in Mexico.

What stores sold the Igloo coolers?

In the U.S., these specific Igloo coolers were sold in Costco, Target, Academy, Dick’s Sporting Goods and other retailers nationwide. Online, they were sold through Amazon and the official Igloo website. The coolers were available for purchase between January 2019 and January 2025 and cost between $80 and $140.

How do I know if I have a recalled cooler?

This recall involves Igloo 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers manufactured before January 2024. The date of manufacture is printed on the bottom of the cooler. Turn your cooler upside down and look for a circle of numbers, with an arrow pointing to the month the cooler was manufactured. The inside number is the year the cooler was manufactured.

All of the recalled models have tow handles and come in a variety of colors. The recall announcement shows what the models look like in six different colors, though there are others not pictured. Here is a full list of the coolers that have been recalled:
