The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) along with Contigo USA, of Chicago, Ill., have announced a voluntary recall of about 5.7 million (In addition, about 157,000 were sold in Canada and about 28,000 sold in Mexico) Contigo Kids Cleanable Water Bottles because the water bottle’s Clear Silicone Spout can detach, posing a choking hazard to children.

Contigo has received 149 reports of the spout detaching including 18 spouts found in children’s mouths.

This recall involves Contigo Kids Cleanable water bottles. The base and cover of the clear silicone spout will always be BLACK. Only black color spout base and spout cover models are included in this recall. Contigo is printed on the rim and along the front near the bottom of the bottle. The water bottles come in three sizes (13 ounce, 14 ounce and 20 ounce) and four bottle colors (solid color, graphics, stainless steel, and stainless steel solid colors). The water bottles were sold individually as well as in two-packs and three-packs.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled water bottles, take them away from children and contact Contigo toll-free at 888-262-0622 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or online at www.gocontigo.com/recall or www.gocontigo.com and click on Recalls at the bottom of the page for more information on how to receive a free replacement lid.
