Starbucks Recalls 230,000 Bodum Recycled Coffee Presses Due to Laceration Hazard
Heads up!
Have you purchased a Starbucks Bodum Recycled Coffee Press over the past few years? On May 1st, Starbucks issued a recall on their Bodum Recycled Coffee Presses because they had received nine total reports of the plunger’s knob breaking, resulting in lacerations or puncture injuries.
These coffee presses were sold at Starbucks stores nationwide and online at Starbucks.com from November 2016 through January 2019 for about $20. The affected coffee presses have the SKU number 011063549 printed on a white label on the bottom of the base. Also, “Bodum” and “Made in Portugal” are embossed on the bottom.
If you believe you have one of these recalled Coffee Presses, you can register your product on the Bodum + Starbucks Recycled Coffee Presses Recall website. According to the U.S. CPSC site, you can return it to any Starbucks location for a refund in the form of store credit to Starbucks.
Have more questions? Contact the Starbucks Recall Hotline at 888-843-0245 from 8am-5pm ET Monday through Friday or go to Starbucks.com for more information.
Oh, man. I did not know my press was so harmful. Thanks for posting this.
I submitted the info online & this is the message “We will provide you with a return kit to return your recalled Bodum + Starbucks French Press. You should receive the return kit within 15 business days. Your store credit card will be mailed to you within 4-6 weeks of receipt of the affected unit.” So not as simple as returning it to the store. I am calling in the morning.
You’re welcome!
Thanks for posting. I doubt I would have seen this recall otherwise.
You’re so welcome! Glad to help!
Super disappointed in this. They cannot verify my unit because the sticker is no longer on the bottom of my press…. seems a bit not right.
