June 11, 2026: CPSC Recalls Kidisle KC101B Coffeemakers

On June 11, 2026, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced Kidisle’s recall of about 17,600 KC101B coffeemakers[1]. The agency cited at least 107 reports of hot liquid or steam release, causing at least 27 burn injuries needing care. Kidisle is offering a full refund. Affected owners must destroy the coffeemaker and mark it “Recalled.” Then they email a photo of the cut cord and model number to the company to complete the process.

Which Kidisle Coffeemakers Are Affected?

The recall covers a single Kidisle coffeemaker model, and the details below identify whether your machine is the one that was recalled:

• Model KC101B single-serve hot and iced coffeemaker, sold in black, white and gray color options.
• Measures about 11 inches high and 6 inches wide. Has a 50-ounce detachable water tank that brews 6 to 14 ounces of coffee per cup.
• Sold at Amazon.com, Walmart.com and eBay.com from June 2024 through April 2026 for about $49.
• The model number “KC101B” is printed on a sticker on the coffeemaker’s underside and on the product order receipt.

If your coffeemaker matches this description, it is included in the recall. This is true regardless of where or when you bought it, as long as the purchase falls within the sale period listed above.

Why Were Kidisle Coffeemakers Recalled?

Kidisle Coffeemakers were recalled because the KC101B model can become clogged. That clog lets hot liquid or steam build up inside the machine and release unexpectedly during brewing. The sudden release of hot liquid or steam can strike and burn the person using the coffeemaker. That risk led to burn injuries requiring medical treatment before CPSC ordered the recall. CPSC’s recall notice classifies the clogging defect as a risk of serious injury, the term the agency uses for this hazard. Kidisle is offering owners a full refund rather than a repair for the recalled coffeemakers, consistent with the remedy CPSC’s notice describes.

Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses

The injuries CPSC has logged include first- and second-degree burns that required medical treatment. First-degree burns are red and painful without blisters and usually heal within three to five days. Second-degree burns blister, swell and hurt more. Superficial ones heal in about two weeks, but deeper second-degree burns may need ongoing medical care and can leave lasting scarring, according to the American Burn Association[2]. Mayo Clinic advises emergency care for a burn that looks white, brown or charred, or covers more than three inches. Emergency care is also needed for a burn on the hands, face, groin or a major joint[3]. These figures reflect only the reports CPSC has received about the KC101B coffeemaker. The actual number of people affected by the clogging defect could be higher.

What Should Consumers Do?

Owners of a recalled Kidisle KC101B single-serve coffeemaker should take the following steps to stay safe and complete Kidisle’s refund process:

1. Stop using the recalled Kidisle KC101B coffeemaker right away to avoid another burn from hot liquid or steam.
2. Unplug the coffeemaker and cut its power cord so the unit cannot be plugged in or used again.
3. Write the word “Recalled” on the coffeemaker in permanent marker before you photograph it for Kidisle.
4. Take a clear photo of the destroyed coffeemaker that shows both the visible model number and the cut cord.
5. Email that photo to KidisleKC101Brecall@outlook.com to receive a full refund. You can also report a related burn injury to CPSC through its SaferProducts.gov online form.

Legal Options

No lawsuit, class action or settlement has been filed over the Kidisle KC101B recall. Some burned consumers are pursuing individual legal reviews instead. A recall does not automatically establish liability or eligibility for compensation. A supported claim could involve documented medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering connected to the injury. Compensation depends on the facts of each case, and no past result guarantees a future outcome.

What Evidence Should I Keep After a Kidisle Coffeemaker Burn?
