On November 5, 2026, Baby Brezza and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled about 29,000 units because the machines can overheat while plugged in and running, creating a burn hazard.

Which Sterilizers Are Recalled?
Look for model BRZ0083, BRZ0154 or BRZ0156 on the label underneath the machine. They were sold at TJ Maxx and Marshalls stores nationwide and online at BabyBrezza.com, Target.com and Babylist.com. If you got yours from a baby registry, it is worth checking even if you did not buy it yourself.
How to Get Your Free Replacement
- Unplug it and stop using it. Sterilize bottles by boiling them in a pot on the stove for now.
- Register on Baby Brezza’s recall page and fill out the recall form.
- Cut the power cord so the unit cannot be used again.
- Email photos of the model number label and the cut cord, along with your return authorization number, to recall@babybrezza.com.
- Throw the unit away following your local rules once your photos are submitted.
You can also call Baby Brezza at 888-527-9824, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday.
Baby Brezza Recall Checklist for a Safer Bottle Routine
Use this quick checklist while you wait for your replacement so feeding time stays calm and safe.
- Check every unit. If you have a second sterilizer at a grandparent’s home or child care, check that model number too.
- Keep a backup method. Boiling bottles in a pot on the stove works until your new unit arrives.
- Let gear cool. Give hot bottles and parts time to cool before handing them to your baby.
- Save your paperwork. Keep your return authorization number and photos until the replacement shows up.
- Watch for future notices. Register baby gear when you buy it so the company can reach you about recalls.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my Baby Brezza formula maker recalled?
No. This recall is only for the three SuperFast Sterilizer Dryer models listed above.
Does the replacement cost anything?
No. The replacement and shipping are free.
Where can I read the official recall?
The full notice is on the CPSC website.
How do I know if my sterilizer is part of the Baby Brezza recall?
Turn the unit over and read the label on the bottom. If it says BRZ0083, BRZ0154 or BRZ0156, it is part of the Baby Brezza recall, even if it has never overheated in your home.
Can I keep using it if it seems to work fine?
No. Stop using it now. The units can overheat while plugged in and running, so a machine that seems fine today can still be a burn hazard.
What should I use while I wait for my replacement?
Boil bottles, nipples and parts in a pot of water on the stove, then let them air dry on a clean rack. Once your new unit arrives, read the instructions before the first use.
Does the Baby Brezza recall affect gifts and secondhand units?
Yes. The model number is what matters, not where you got it. Check sterilizers from baby showers, hand-me-downs and resale sites too.
