Stanley is recalling millions of travel mugs, including more than 180,000 sold in Canada, because of a defect that poses a burn risk.
Health Canada says the Stanley-branded "Switchback" and "Trigger Action" mugs have a faulty lid that can shrink when exposed to heat and torque, and it may detach when in use.
The federal agency says it's received three reports of this happening in Canada, including from one person who was injured.
Stanley says it's sold 2.6 million of the mugs in the U.S., and 16 people have reported the lid detaching, resulting in two burn injuries.
Health Canada says people who have one of the affected mugs, which were sold between May 2016 and this month, should stop using the products and contact Stanley for a free replacement lid.
Stanley's mugs were popularized on social media, but their most famous model, which features a handle and a straw, is not affected by the recall.
