NUK First Choice Glass Baby Bottles Recalled for Excess Lead Content

NUK First Choice 240 mL glass baby bottles sold on Amazon.com from January 2018 to May 2022 contain lead markings that exceed the federal lead content ban. Lead is toxic to young children if ingested.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a lead-content violation affecting young children, which constitutes a high-risk hazard. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, lead is inherently toxic to infants and young children if ingested, making this a risk-of-harm product where the potential for serious adverse health effects is established by the source text.
