    The product, in the report: disposable bakeware pan

    injuries I sustained from Reynolds cookware

    UPDATED ON 2/24/2026: [To the Consumer Product Safety Commission, I am submitting this follow-up correspondence regarding my previously filed report involving a Reynolds Kitchens® Heavy Duty Medium Roasting Pan that collapsed during normal use and caused severe burn injuries.

    The manufacturer’s response to CPSC asserts that the product was “not used in accordance with instructions” and that it “was not lifted and supported with a non-disposable cookie sheet.” This assertion is inaccurate. The pan was used exactly as instructed on the packaging. Specifically: • The disposable aluminum roasting pan was placed on a non-disposable cookie sheet prior to being placed in the oven. • When removing the lasagna from the oven, the pan was fully supported and lifted using that same cookie sheet underneath it. • Despite being properly supported, the roasting pan structurally failed and collapsed, causing hot contents to spill and resulting in significant burns to my hand and arm.

    The packaging warning states: “CAUTION: DIRECTIONS FOR USE TO AVOID BURNS. Handle the pan with caution at all times. Lift and support pan with a non-disposable cookie sheet. I followed this instruction precisely. The injury occurred even while complying with the stated safety guidance.

    This raises serious product safety concerns: -If a “heavy duty” roasting pan collapses while fully supported as instructed, then the warning may not adequately mitigate the risk. -Consumers reasonably rely on labeling that suggests proper support will prevent collapse-related burns. -A foreseeable and intended use (baking a lasagna and removing it from an oven while supported) resulted in structural failure and injury.

    My concern extends beyond my personal injury. This product is marketed for oven use with heavy food items. If collapse can occur even when properly supported, other consumers may be at similar risk. ]

    The product, in the report: Reynolds Aluminum Baking Sheets

    I used Reynolds Aluminum baking sheets and I have never had this problem before using baking wares but all of a sudden my teeth are beginning to hurt. I believe it may be linked to the aluminum.

    The product, in the report: cupcake liners

    I purchased Reynolds Baked for You StayBrite baking cups, which are cupcake liners. I use cupcake liners to make muffins which I then freeze and reheat, one per day, in a microwave oven. The package has no warning against use in the microwave. It also has only one small reference to a foil lining. As I typically do, I microwaved the muffins I made in the Reynolds’ liners several days before realizing that perhaps because of the foil lining,they should not be used in the microwave. I contacted Reynolds and received the answer below that, in fact, the product should not be used in the microwave. My response to that email is below but I have received no response back as of this date.

    As I noted to Reynolds, I have a daughter on oxygen and if we had had a fire from the microwave I hate to think what would have happened. It is very DANGEROUS not to have a warning on the packaging. While I am now aware of this hazard, I am writing to you with the hope that the CPSC will take action to protect other consumers from this hazard before there is an unfortunate incident. Thank you for your attention and help! [REDACTED]

    My correspondence with Reynolds:

I would also like to know if Reynolds will add that as a warning to your packaging. I have a daughter on oxygen and if we had had a fire from the microwave I hate to think what would have happened. It is DANGEROUS not to have a warning on your packaging. If you are not in a position to respond to this, please forward to the appropriate person.
