L.L. Bean Recalling Water Bottles Over Lead Concerns
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- L.L. Bean is recalling insulated water bottles for kids because of concerns about lead contamination.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission says the bottles were sold by L.L. Bean from July 2015 through May of this year.
The bottles come in five prints - sharks, dinosaur bones, camouflage, flowers and butterflies.
L.L. Bean said it specified lead-free water bottles from the Chinese manufacturer, but routine testing revealed lead solder had been used to seal the bottoms of some of the bottles.
