Ninja Foodi Pressure Cooker (OP300 Series) VS Dyson Cordless Vacuum
Verdict DROP IT DROP IT
The Reality CPSC's May 2025 recall notice documents a serious real defect specific to the OP300 Series: the pressure-cooking lid can be opened while the contents are still pressurized, causing hot contents to escape. SharkNinja received more than 100 reports of burn injuries, including more than 50 second- and third-degree burns to the face or body, and the defect has been the subject of 26 separate lawsuits. Roughly 1.8 million units were recalled, sold at major retailers including Walmart, Costco, Sam's Club, Amazon, and Target from January 2019 through March 2025. The UK's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) formally investigated the specific '10x the suction' claim after evidence and independent testing were submitted by both companies. The ASA found Dyson had misled customers by conflating suction power (a measurable airflow specification) with real-world pick-up performance (how much dirt the vacuum actually removes from a surface) -- two different things that don't necessarily track together. The ad and accompanying YouTube video were banned, and the ASA required Dyson to make the basis of any future comparative claims explicit and to hold adequate test data before making implied or stated performance comparisons.
SHORT ANSWER
Ninja Foodi Pressure Cooker (OP300 Series): CPSC's May 2025 recall of 1.8 million Ninja Foodi OP300 Series pressure cookers documented over 100 burn reports -- including more than 50 second- and third-degree burns -- caused by the pressure-cooking lid opening while contents were still pressurized.
Dyson Cordless Vacuum: The UK's Advertising Standards Authority formally ruled that Dyson's '10x the suction' comparative ad claim misled customers by conflating raw suction power with real-world pick-up performance, and banned the ad.
