(KMOX) — Contigo is recalling its Kids Cleanable Water Bottles due to a choking hazard, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The water bottle’s clear silicone spout can detach, posing a choking hazard to children.

The base and cover of the clear silicone spout are black. The CPSC reports only black color spout base and spout cover models are recalled.

This recall covers this water bottle style, which came in three sizes (13 ounces, 14 ounces and 20 ounces) and four colors (solid color, graphics, stainless steel and stainless steel solid colors). They were sold individually as well as in two-packs and three-packs at Costco, Target and Walmart, in addition to various online outlets between April 2018 and June 2019.

According to the CPSC, Contigo has received 149 reports of the spout detaching including 18 spouts found in children’s mouths.

Anyone who has purchased this item is recommended to take it away from their child and contact Contigo for inspection instructions and a free replacement lid.
