CPSC campaign 13116

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.

Remedy

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