Stanley is recalling approximately 2.6 million stainless steel travel mugs because of a potential burn hazard.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, this recall affects the switchback and trigger action stainless steel travel mugs, as the mug’s lid can shrink when exposed to heat, causing it to detach during use. It affects the mugs in 12 oz., 16 oz. and 20 oz. sizes.

The lids are made of polypropylene. According to , the mugs were sold online through Amazon and other retailers including Walmart, Dick’s Sporting Goods and Target. The products affected go as far back as being produced in June 2016, and were sold between $20 and $50, depending on the model.
