Recall Alert: Granitestone Sauté Pans

A significant recall has been issued for approximately 740,000 Granitestone Diamond Pro Blue stainless steel sauté pans sold at major retailers including Costco, Walmart, and Amazon. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall on April 2nd due to a potential safety hazard.

Safety Hazard Identified

The recall stems from a defect where the metal cap securing the screw that attaches the pan to the handle can detach forcefully when the pan is heated. This poses a risk of impact injuries and burns to consumers. The detachment can occur unexpectedly, creating a dangerous situation.

Reported Incidents

The CPSC has received 98 reports of the metal cap detaching from the pans. One consumer reported sustaining bruising and burn injuries as a result of the cap’s ejection, highlighting the potential for serious harm.

Product Details & Dates

The recalled sauté pans were sold as a two-piece set, containing one 10-inch pan and one 11.5-inch pan. They were available for purchase from August 2021 to February 2026 at Costco stores and online via Costco.com, Walmart.com, and Amazon.com. The set retailed for approximately $40.

Identifying the Recalled Pans

Affected products can be identified by the UPC number 0-80313-08131-6.

What Consumers Should Do

Consumers who own these pans are strongly advised to stop using them immediately. To receive a full refund, customers should contact the manufacturer, E Misha, directly. The refund process requires providing proof of purchase or product identification and includes the return of the sauté pans.

The CPSC’s involvement underscores the importance of product safety and the need for manufacturers to prioritize consumer well-being.
