SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20200218-01772-2147374773. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Anchor Hocking Company 4 pc bake n take (Anchor Hocking Company "4 pc bake n take" Clear Glass Oblong Baking Dish 3 quart Oblong sized 9 inch by 13 inch Oven and microwave safe up to 425 degree oven Model 4 pc bake n take).

When I opened the oven for the second turning (with a wooden spoon), the glass baking dish spontaneously shattered and exploded. Glass shards were sent everywhere, including deeper within the oven, my kitchen, my wood floor, my kitchen mat. The heat of the blast hit my face and I fell back. I was not hurt, but was very upset and shocked. Glass fragments were everywhere. My oven was destroyed, glass melted into my floor, penetrated my oven mitts and slippers, and ruined a kitchen mat. My sweet potatoes were also ruined, so we did not have them at Thanksgiving. The Anchor Hocking Glass Baking dish was only 2 years old and it was the second time I had used it. It was clear glass, oblong, 3 qt capacity, 13 in by 9 in. There were no scratches or chips in the glass. It exploded spontaneously and without cause. I called Anchor Hocking to report the accident caused by the exploding glass baking dish on Monday, December 2, 2019.
