Hazard

The insulated bottles have a weak seal and can leak hot liquids, which poses a serious burn hazard to consumers.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using these bottles immediately and return them to any Eddie Bauer store for a full refund.

Incidents & injuries

Eddie Bauer has received four reports of the insulated bottles leaking, though no injuries have been reported.

Product description

The recalled Wide Mouth Lunch Bottles are 32-oz. stainless steel containers, with a black base and handle, a black carrying strap, and a two-piece lid (including a drinking cup). The insulated bottles have the words "Eddie Bauer" written on one side of the container (which is located 1 3/4 inches from the lower edge of the plastic collar), and a label that reads "Eddie Bauer Wide Mouth Lunch Bottle" on the other. On the bottom of the bottle, there is a sticker that reads "Made in China."
