What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

However, glass and metal fragments pose a risk of injury to consumers if ingested. This is a Class II recall from FDA, and the source explicitly indicates no reported harm, placing it at the maximum score of 3 per the rubric for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.
