Incident: Around January 1st, 2019, I purchased two hand-held wire whisks branded "KitchenAid" at a local Kroger Store. In normal use and domestic dishwasher cleaning, the chrome collar on both whisks cracked around the wires leaving a small, sharp, loose plastic fragment which could fall into the food being prepared. This happened on one whisk and the second whisk developed a similar fracture on the collar surrounding the wire.

Incident: I was eating mashed potatoes that I had whipped using a KitchenAid hand whisk, when I noticed something hard and sharp in my mouth. It turned out to be a piece that had broken off the whisk while I was using it. If I had bitten down on it, it would have broken a tooth. Who knows what swallowing it would have done.

Source model text: Gourmet Utility Whisk. Incident: I bought the KitchenAid Gourmet Utility Whisk, 10.5-Inch, Matte Black on Amazon.com. This whisk has a small silver ring at the top of the handle. This morning a piece of the silver piece broke off while I was making a waffle mix. I discovered this when I took a bite of the waffle and bit down on something hard. I found that there were two broken plastic pieces of the handle cooked into the waffle. Luckily, I spat out the hard piece to inspect and did not try to continue chewing or swallow the plastic pieces. I also want to note a piece of the handle had broken off before while I was using it back in December 2020, but that time I noticed the plastic in the mix. I should have thrown it away then. This whisk is dangerous and presents a choking hazard.
