Over 75000 light-up tumbler bottles recalled; Here’s why

No description found

More than 75,000 light-up tumblers sold nationwide are being recalled because they could pose a serious choking and ingestion hazard, according to federal safety officials.

The recall involves about 75,700 BUILT LUUM light-up tumblers, which come in 16-ounce and 18-ounce sizes and were sold in multiple colors and seasonal designs at major retailers across the U.S. between October 2024 and December 2025.

Stores included Kroger, Hy-Vee, Meijer, Nordstrom Rack and Winn-Dixie, as well as online sales.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the tumblers contain an LED light in the bottom that uses a button-cell battery. The cups can break, allowing the battery to come loose, which creates a dangerous choking risk — especially for children.

Safety officials warn that swallowed button batteries can cause severe internal burns, serious injuries, or even death, and anyone who believes a battery may have been swallowed should seek medical help immediately.

So far, the manufacturer has received one report of a child gaining access to the battery, but no injuries have been confirmed.

Consumers who have the recalled tumblers are being told to stop using them right away and contact the company, Lifetime Brands, for a refund. Customers may be asked to dispose of the LED portion of the tumbler and submit proof before receiving reimbursement.

Officials say anyone who owns one of these tumblers should check the product label on the bottom of the cup or hangtag to confirm whether it is part of the recall.
