CPSC recall,

“YETI Recalls 1.9 Million Soft Coolers and Gear Cases Due to Magnet Ingestion Hazard”

Which units
“This recall involves the YETI Hopper M30 Soft Cooler 1.0 and 2.0, Hopper M20 Soft Backpack Cooler and SideKick Dry Gear Case.”
How to tell
“A hang tag with the product name is attached to the coolers and gear cases.”
Hazard
“The magnet-lined closures can fail and result in detached magnets, posing a risk of serious injury or death if ingested. When two or more high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract to each other, or to another metal object, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning and death.”
What the CPSC says to do
“Consumers should immediately stop using their recalled soft coolers or gear bags and contact YETI to receive a full refund or replacement product.”
Remedy
“Visit www.yeti.com for instructions on returning the product free of charge for the choice of a free replacement for their YETI soft cooler or gear bag or full refund in the form of a YETI gift card.”

How we checked

The 1 Shot Gear product page (fetched, HTTP 200) confirms the exact model "YETI Hopper M20 Soft Backpack Cooler" at Regular price $325.00 and reproduces YETI's official MEASUREMENTS & SPECS block verbatim: external dimensions 18.1"W x 9.9"D x 18.1"H and empty weight 5.6 LBS (2.5 KG). The Mighty Fish page (fetched, HTTP 200) corroborates the same model and $325.00 price and states it fits 36 cans. YETI's own product page returned HTTP 403 (bot block) so could not be fetched directly; both retailers mirror YETI's official figures. Cited pages are the original Hopper M20, distinct from the newer "M20 2.0" refresh; volume liters left blank because the cited pages omit a liter figure and other sources conflict, and closure type is left blank because the M20's magnetic MagShield closure is not among the allowed enum values.
