Incident: I've had my Juice Machine by Mr. Coffee for several years and decided to use it, as I had some small [REDACTED] grapes and wanted to get some juice to make jelly. I put less than 1/8 a cup of fresh grapes in it, plugged it in, turned it on, and POW! The machine exploded while it was still plugged in. The base was flipping around on the counter; the round top & metal base blade were spinning; large & tiny chunks of plastic were hurled throughout my kitchen, into the dining room, and down the hall into the utility room! It finally unplugged itself from the wall when the base fell to the floor. It is a miracle my eyesight was not taken from me. For several hours after it happened, I had a loud hum in my ears that turned into sounding like I was under water. Now, I just have an extremely high pitched constant sound. I have had some tinnitus in the past, and it kind of sounds like that only much higher. I took a bath to remove all the tiny pieces of plastic stuck to my face, neck, and body and washed my eyes with an eye rinse. I'm still finding tiny little pieces of plastic on my neck, face, and arms. On Monday, I may go to see my eye doctor to make sure nothing is still in my eyes. I have no idea what caused it to do what it did. I have owned many Mr. Coffee products and have always been very happy with them.

The steam generated in the brewing process appears to expand the plastic cover and causes it to pop open to release superheated steam. The steam has burned the face and hands of the user.

The machine is two years old and only lightly used in a home setting. My concern is that the metal part or magnet could be unknowingly consumed by a person, and the company provided a generic and uninterested response.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20240119-DC5D3-2147342635. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Mr. Coffee 14-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker BVMC-PC14BL2 (Mr. Coffee 14-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker Model #: BVMC-BVMC-PC14BL2 Color: Black & Stainless Steel SAP #: 2143561). Incident: On September 21, 2023, I purchased a Mr. Coffee 14-cup coffee maker (Model #: BVMC-PC14BL2) from my local Wal-Mart. On December 22, 2023, I discovered that after the 4-hour warming timer expired, the Brew Now light turned off, indicating that it had shut down, but the warmer was still extremely hot and when I attempted to add water for a programmed delayed brew the next morning, it began trying to brew immediately, even though the Brew light was still turned off. The only way to make it turn off was to unplug it. Thinking it was a fluke, I returned the defective coffee maker to WalMart on December 21, 2023, and exchanged it for a new one of the same model. Yesterday, January 18, less than 30 days after purchase, this new one did the exact same thing. There are numerous reviews on WalMart and other sites for this coffee maker of other customers experiencing this exact same issue. I believe that this product is not only defective, but poses both a burn injury risk and a fire hazard, and needs to be recalled. I called Mr. Coffee this morning to advise them of this, and they did offer me a refund. However, I believe that this product is extremely dangerous and needs to be recalled.
