Bodum USA is recalling about 5.9 million French press coffee makers because the glass pot can break and burn people, CBS News and TODAY report. The company has received 70 reports of broken glass pots, and 48 of them led to burns, the outlets report, citing the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The presses were sold at Target, Walmart, Amazon and other stores from 1974 through October 2026, the outlets report. They cost between $15 and $65, TODAY reports. The recall covers eight models with glass pots that hold 8 or 12 cups.

The glass can break without warning if it is cracked or damaged, the outlets report. That damage can happen when people stir the coffee with a metal spoon, the safety agency says.

Bodum said the rate of glass breaking during use is "extremely low," the outlets report. The company said the recall "will further encourage the safe use of our French Press Coffee Makers."

People who own one should stop using metal spoons inside the glass and should not use a pot that is cracked or chipped, the outlets report. Owners can ask Bodum for a free plastic stirring spoon. A company customer service worker said Bodum is not giving refunds, CBS News reports.

Bodum USA is the American arm of a Danish-Swiss coffee gear company, CBS News reports. The brand says it is family-owned and has made coffee and tea makers for 72 years, TODAY reports.
