This is easily one of the most common cooking appliance you'll find in Missouri kitchens. This multi-function cooker is now under an urgent recall, though, after 106 burn injury reports.

My family's food preparation nearly revolves around our air fryer. What microwave ovens used to be in the 1980's, air fryers and multi-function cookers have become this decade. That's now a big problem as the United States Consumer Products Safety Commission has just issued an urgent recall of more than 1.8 million cookers that are connected to 106 burn injuries and 26 lawsuits.

This is the SharkNinja Foodi OP300 Series Multi-Function Pressure Cookers that are the subject of this recall.
