Nearly 100 burn injuries have triggered an urgent recall of Oster’s popular French door countertop ovens. The Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of 1.29 million Oster French Door Countertop Ovens after reports flooded in about doors unexpectedly snapping closed while people reached inside. Ninety-five incident reports reached the CPSC, with two victims suffering second-degree burns. Your morning routine shouldn’t require navigating a kitchen hazard, yet that’s exactly what these ovens became.
Stop using your oven immediately if you own models:
- TSSTTVFDXL
- TSSTTVFDDG
- TSSTTVFDMAF
- TSSTTVFDDAF
Find the model number on a label stuck to the back of your unit or printed on the original box. These ovens feature the signature French door design—two glass doors with metal handles that spring open, plus “Oster” engraved on the front lower right corner.
A Decade-Long Distribution Problem
Major retailers sold these dangerous ovens for nearly ten years at premium prices.
Walmart, Costco, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Amazon all carried these $140-to-$250 ovens between August 2015 and July 2025. The spring mechanism that makes those French doors pop open also creates the closing force that’s been catching users off guard. Customers paid premium prices for what they thought was an innovative design—only to discover the feature could cause serious burns.
The sleek bilateral doors that once seemed like a kitchen upgrade have become the source of this safety crisis. Spring-loaded doors slam shut while people reach inside, turning routine cooking into a potential emergency room visit.
