Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20120712-2015D-2147465742. Matched catalog product: Hamilton Beach Griddle Model# 38518R, Power Adapter Model# ZL203. Source model text: Expresson & Cappuccino Machine model 40715. Incident: I had a Espresso & Cappuccino machine model 40729 It started streaming and became very dangerous. I just saw that it was on the recall. After I stopped using it my husband purchased another Hamilton Beach Model 40715 and very soon like after about 4 cups of coffee it really showed it was defective because it would steam out of the coffee ground cup and burned my hand by the steam.Obviously I stopped using that one also. I contacted Hamilton Beach right after this happened and all they said was that it was suppose to do this. Now I would really like to return both of these the recalled one and the new one because of safety problems and i truly hope that I will get assistance on this from Hamilton Beach this time.
