Canning Jar Lifter

Published January 20, 2015 · Recall initiated: February 6, 2013

What's the hazard

The jar lifter handle can detach over time due to a missing stainless steel core in the hinge. This can cause the tongs to fail to grip and allow a jar being lifted to fall, posing a laceration hazard to the user.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the jar lifter and contact Progressive International Corporation for a free replacement.
