SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20130302-E4CCD-2147458296. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: KitchenAid KEBS207SSS04. Source model text: KEBS207SSS. Incident: I used the self-cleaning cycle on our KitchenAid double wall oven for the first time this afternoon. The oven is less than a year old. An hour into the cleaning cycle, the inner glass door exploded with such force that shattered glass blew through the seams of the locked oven door. There is glass all over my kitchen, and the oven itself is filled with broken glass. If someone in my family had been standing closer to the oven at the time, there is no doubt that serious injury would have resulted.

Incident: My KitchenAid double wall oven, model # KEBS2077SSS, serial # XW3504799 - the interior glass panel exploded during the self-cleaning cycle. Unfortunately it's Thanksgiving week...we ran the self clean on the upper over first, that worked fine. Then we ran the self-clean on the bottom oven, and near the end of the self-clean cycle, the interior glass panel exploded into a million little pieces that started shooting out around the edges of the door, onto our hard wood floor in the kitchen - the little glass pieces were so hot they burned spots into the finish on the wood floors. This was very difficult to clean up and we finally placed large pieces of cardboard on the floor to catch the small glass pieces that kept dropping out around the edge of the door as the glass cooled. The explosion shot glass pieces two or three feet out onto the floor, thank goodness we were in the next room and no one was injured or burned.

Incident: We have a KitchenAid double oven where we turned on the self-cleaning control. It was the second time that we used that function. In about 2 hours there was a large explosion and glass flew everywhere. Apparently, the oven overheated and if we hadn't been home our house may have burned down. We Googled similar incidents and found that this had occurred many times in the past with other consumers.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20140225-9CE5B-2147446914. Matched catalog product: KitchenAid KEBS207SSS04. Incident: On Saturday, Feb. 22, 2014, the glass in my built-in KitchenAid oven EXPLODED, and sent pieces of glass flying out into my kitchen. At least 8 feet away. The oven was set for broil to cook vegetables that were in a [REDACTED] cooking dish, which survived intact, but was full of broken oven glass. KitchenAid wants to "repair" the oven. The glass was pulverized into small pieces and glass dust when it exploded. This is a convection oven with a fan that circulates air through the oven. It can't simply be repaired. There is glass dust throughout the oven and even in the double oven below. The glass dust will be blown back into the food being cooked.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20191101-17314-2147376815. Severity: Injury, First Aid Received by Non-Medical Professional. Product: KitchenAid KEBS207SSS04 (KitchenAid 30" double oven circa 2011.). Incident: Exploding oven Recently purchased house that had been rehabbed with all Kitchenaid appliances in the kitchen. Used the self-clean function on the upper oven of the built-in Kitchenaid double oven and the glass exploded with a loud explosion all over the kitchen and interior parts of the oven. Fortunately no one was in the kitchen during the explosion but when I entered to find the source of the explosion I had received cuts and burns from the 900 degree glass sprayed all over our kitchen. Our nicely finished wood floor was burned and gouged by the burning hot glass and the oven needed complete disassembly and repair. A few days later when I ran the self-clean function on the lower oven it also exploded again spaying 900 degree glass all over our kitchen. This is a serious safety issues as anyone in proximity to the ovens when they explode could be seriously injured. These ovens should be recalled and repaired prior to serious injury.
