Over 10.2 Million Metal Wire Bristle Grill Brushes Were Recalled by Nexgrill
Several different models of Nexgrill grill brushes were recalled recently. It was found that the small metal wire bristles in those brushes could detach from the grill brush and attach to the grill or to food. This presents a danger of ingestion, and consequently, the danger that someone could suffer serious injuries, including ones that necessitate surgery. If you were injured as a result of Nexgrill grill brushes sticking to your food, you should call the seasoned Chicago-based product liability lawyers of Moll Law Group. Billions have been recovered in cases with which we’ve been involved around the country.

Nexgrill has become aware of a minimum of 68 reports and reviews that state that the grill brushes’ small wire bristles detached. There were five reports of people who swallowed the metal bristles and needed medical care to get the bristles removed from their throat or digestive tract.
The recalled grill brushes, which are between 18 and 21 inches long, and have the word “Nexgrill” on them, were sold at Home Depot and online at homedepot.com from 2015 through 2026 for $5 to $15. They have black plastic or wood handles.
The recalled models of the metal wire bristle grill brushes are as follows: Nexgrill 19-Inch Grill Brush (Model Number 530-0024); Nexgrill Grill Brush with Scraper (Model Number 530-0024G); Nexgrill Long Handle Grill Brush (Model Number 530-0034); Nexgrill Grill Brush and Scraper (Model Number 530-0039); Nexgrill Grill Brush with Scrub Pad (Model Number 530-0041); and Nexgrill Wood Handle Grill Brush (Model Number 530-0042).
Consumers have been asked to stop using the recalled brushes and to contact the company for a full refund in the form of a gift card. This remedy likely would not suffice in the case of someone who was injured by the metal bristles. In such a case, it may be appropriate to bring a product liability lawsuit. These types of suits are brought when a product is defective in terms of its manufacturing, design, or marketing. Our lawyers would need to establish a theory of liability; the available theories of liability vary from state to state, but could include strict liability, negligence, breach of warranty, breach of contract or statutory violations.
If our attorneys can establish liability for a defective Nexgrill brush, we may be able to recover economic and noneconomic damages on your behalf. Economic damages can include medical bills, lost wages, replacement services, and out-of-pocket costs. For example, if you needed to have a surgery as a result of a metal bristle getting stuck in your throat, you should be able to recover the cost of the surgery plus the time off work. Noneconomic damages include pain and suffering, lost earning capacity, mental anguish, and loss of consortium.
