Crock-pot recall

Sunbeam Products is recalling almost a million of its “Six-quart express crock multi-cookers.”

It can pressurize when the lid isn’t fully locked, causing the lid to pop off suddenly and posing a burn risk. If you have the cooker, you can still use it as a slow-cooker, but don’t use it as a pressure cooker until you get a replacement lid. Crock-Pot will send free replacement lids to consumers who contact them.

One more precaution before you get started on any preparations for the holiday.
