SharkNinja Recalls 1.8 Million Multi-Function Pressure Cookers

On May 1, 2025, SharkNinja Foodi OP Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers were recalled due to the risk of burn injuries. The danger is that the lid of the pressure cooker could be opened by consumers while food was cooking, which could result in the hot material inside escaping and burning the consumer who’d opened the pot or bystanders. Around 1,846,400 pressure cooker units in the United States have been recalled. All of the Ninja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers are involved. If you were burned as a result of using a Ninja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers, you should consult the seasoned Chicago-based lawyers of Moll Law Group.

The SharkNinja lids may pop open while the pressure cooker is in use. When hot food escapes from the inside, the result may be severe or even catastrophic burn injuries. About 106 people have reported they were injured by using the SharkNinja and over 50 of these people reported that they suffered second or third degree burns to their face or body. More than 20 lawsuits have been filed against SharkNinja.

Affected SharkNinja pressure cookers were sold at Walmart, Costco, Sam’s Club, Amazon and Target stores around the country. Online retailers of the product are at www.Ninjakitchen.com, www.walmart.com, www.costco.com, www.samsclub.com, www.amazon.com and www.target.com from January 2019 through March 2025. The product sells for about $200.

The Ninja cookers have multiple functions, including air frying in addition to pressure cooking. They are black with “Ninja” printed on their fronts, and they can hold 6.5 quarts. The affected model numbers are OP300, OP301, OP301A, OP302, OP302BRN, OP302HCN, OP302HAQ, OP302HW, OP302HB, OP305, OP305CO and OP350CO; you can find the model number printed on a label on the side of the cooker, but you should be aware that sometimes there is a code appended to the model number and that isn’t included in the model designation; if you see one of the affected model number with some numbers after it, you should assume that it is affected and stop using the pressure-cooking function. Any OP300 series replacement pressure cooker lids that you bought as an additional part are also included in the recall.

Consumers have been asked to stop using the pressure-cooking function and request a free replacement lid from SharkNinja. While you should not use the pressure-cooking function, it’s claimed that you can use other functions like air frying.

The company advised consumers to stop using the affected pressure cooker immediately and to request a replacement lid for free. However, if you were injured, you may also be able to bring a product liability lawsuit for damages against a manufacturer in connection with products that our attorneys can show are defective in terms of their design, manufacturing, or marketing.

In this case, since the lid of the pressure cooker is able to pop open in the course of using the pressure cooker function, it appears that there is a design flaw. In general, however, it’s important to consult experts as to what type of defect caused the injuries, since expert testimony can become important to the outcome of a product liability lawsuit.
