Ninja Foodi Pressure Cooker (OP300 Series) VS Keurig MINI Plus
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. CPSC's December 2014 recall notice documents a real burn hazard: water inside the MINI Plus (model K10, previously B31) could overheat during brewing and spray out, burning consumers -- a risk Keurig itself said was more likely when brewing more than two cups in quick succession, an entirely normal use pattern. Keurig received about 200 reports of hot liquid escaping the brewer, with 90 of those resulting in reported burn injuries. Roughly 6.6 million units were recalled in the US (plus 564,000 in Canada), covering brewers produced between December 2009 and July 2014.
