Igloo is recalling over one million of its 90 Qt. Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers sold across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico because the tow handles have the potential to amputate fingers.

Most of the time, these recalls are out of an abundance of caution, but it sounds like these coolers have taken a few fingers already.

Igloo has received 12 injury reports in the U.S., the CPSC notes, which include fingertip amputations, bone fractures, and lacerations. There are no known injuries in Canada or Mexico.

If you have a cooler listed here, you can register for the recall online or contact Texas-based Igloo at 888-943-5182 or [email protected] to request a safer handle.

On the other hand, if you do lose a finger to your cooler, chances are there's some ice nearby to put it on for transport to the emergency room.
