Over 180,000 Ninja pressure cookers sold in Canada just got recalled over burn hazard
If you own one of these popular pressure cookers, you'll want to stop using it immediately.
The pressure-cooking lid on these appliances can unexpectedly open during use, potentially causing hot food or liquid to escape and leading to serious burn injuries
If you use a Ninja Foodi Tendercrisp multi-cooker in your kitchen, you might want to check your model number.
Health Canada has just issued a nationwide recall affecting more than 184,000 units sold in Canada.
The issue? The pressure-cooking lid on these appliances can unexpectedly open during use, potentially causing hot food or liquid to escape and leading to serious burn injuries. According to Health Canada, the recall includes the original lids as well as any replacement lids purchased separately.
While no injuries have been reported in Canada, five incidents have been documented as of April 10, 2025. In the U.S., however, over 100 reports of burn injuries have been linked to the same issue.
Which models are affected?
The recall applies to several models of the Ninja Foodi Tendercrisp pressure cookers, specifically those with the following codes:
OP300C, OP301, OP301C, OP302, OP305, OP305CCO, and OP305CO.
You can find your model number on the rating label at the back of the unit, near the power cord.
Only the pressure-cooking function is affected. All other cooking modes — like air crisp, slow cook, and roast — are still safe to use.
What should you do?
- Stop using the pressure-cooking function right away
- Throw out the pressure-cooking lid
- Contact SharkNinja to report the disposal and request a free replacement lid

Under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act, it's illegal to sell, donate, or even give away a recalled product. So if you're no longer using yours, don't pass it along — properly discard the lid and request the free replacement instead.
