Ovens recalled after almost 100 people burned: Don’t use this kitchen product sold at Costco and Walmart

The last thing you want when dealing with a hot oven is any added burn risk. But some owners of Oster’s countertop ovens have experienced just that. 

Oster’s parent company, Sunbeam Products, is recalling over a million units of Oster French Door Countertop Ovens due to its doors unexpectedly closing. The company has received 95 reports of this occurring, leading to burn injuries, two of which were second-degree burns. 

Where and when was the product sold? 

According to a notice from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the recall includes about 1,290,000 units in the United States and another approximately 104,195 units in Canada. 

In the U.S., the ovens were sold nationwide in stores such as Bed Bath & Beyond, Costco, and Walmart. The products were sold from August 2015 to July 2025 for $140 to $250.

They were also available online through Amazon.com and Overstock.com during this time. 

Four model numbers are included in the recall:

  • TSSTTVFDXL
  • TSSTTVFDDG
  • TSSTTVFDMAF
  • TSSTTVFDDAF

The model number is available on the original packaging or on the back of the oven.

How dangerous is this product?

According to a separate recall notice posted to the Oster website, 95 injuries have been reported.

Of those, 93 were minor burns that required no medical treatment and were “consistent with first-degree burns, such as sunburn or friction-related irritation.” The remaining two were second-degree burns that resulted in the victims seeking treatment.

Oster says it has received no reports of hospitalizations as a result of using the ovens.

What should I do if I have this product?

First, stop using it.

If your Oster French Door Countertop Oven is part of the recall, then you can contact Sunbeam Products to receive a free repair kit. You can reach the company through one of three options:

  • A toll free call to 800-334-0759 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday.
  • On Oster’s recall page. 
  • On Oster’s website by clicking the recall banner at the top of the homepage. It will bring you to the recall page. 

The repair kit is made up of a clip-on device that “provides additional holding force to help keep the doors in the open position when reaching in the oven.”

It also has repair instructions and QR code that leads to an installation video. No tools should be necessary to attach the clip-on device.
