What You Should Do
If your coffee maker is part of the recall, stop using metal spoons to stir coffee in the pitcher immediately. Metal spoons can damage the glass, which may break the pitcher during use.
Contact Bodum to receive a plastic stirring spoon and a warning label, reminding consumers not to use cracked pitchers or metal spoons. You can reach Bodum at 888-879-8213, bodum3302@sedgwick.com, or on the company’s website.
