Incident narrative
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.
