BUILT LUUM light up tumblers can break exposing button cell batteries

Plain-English summary

This recall involves the LUUM collection of BUILT-branded light up tumblers made by Lifetime Brands, Inc. of Garden City, New York. The 16 oz and 18 oz plastic drinking cups have a lid, a straw and a bottom compartment containing an LED light with a preinstalled button cell battery, and were sold in winter holiday and Fourth of July themes. Item numbers and UPC codes are printed on a label on the underside or hangtag. About 75,700 units were sold at Kroger, Hy-Vee, Meijer, Nordstrom Rack and Winn-Dixie stores nationwide and online at Builtny.com from October 2024 through December 2025 for between $10 and $15.

The recalled LED tumblers can break, making the button cell batteries accessible to children and posing choking and ingestion hazards. When button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death. Lifetime Brands has received one report of a child gaining access to the tumbler's button cell battery and putting it in the mouth. No injuries have been reported.

Consumers should stop using the recalled tumblers immediately, place them where children cannot access them, and properly dispose of the battery.

Contact Lifetime Brands for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to throw away the piece with the LED light and upload a photo when completing a refund form at builtny.com/pages/recall.
