Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20131001-FE0AC-2147451313. Matched catalog product: T-Fal T-fal 12" 5quart cooker & T-fal 12" frypan. Incident: I purchased a 12-piece set of T-fal Ultimate hard anodized cookware with the thermo-spot. From the first time I used them, I noticed they slid around on the burner more than I thought they should. So much so that you cannot stir in them or dish out food without holding onto the handle. One evening I put a pot of water on to bring to a boil for pasta. I was turned away from my stove preparing other things when I heard a noise. When I turned to look, the pan was wiggling (merely from the boiling water) and had slid most of the way off the burner and was headed towards the edge of the stove top. Had I not noticed this, it could have fallen off my stove and burned me. My main concern is the possibility of this happening when a child is in the kitchen. I do not believe they are safe to use because of this.
