Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20131111-115A8-2147449991. Matched catalog product: Singer Model # HD6800C 125V~60Hz 0.7A. Source model text: 774. Incident: I thought I had sold my juicer about ten years ago, but it had been in storage and I was elated when I discovered it. I had a bumper crop of apples this year and I thought I'd make some apple juice. The basket strainer broke just like you've mentioned and the plastic cover exploded all over my Mom's kitchen and left a huge sticky apple juice mess with literally 100's of small plastic pieces. My Mom was truly frightened and said we should be thankful that no one was hurt. I was telling a co-worker and she insisted that I contact the company. I said I purchased the product years ago, and she said that a reputable company would want to know about how their product was performing. A web search brought me to this site and your site says that you are still interested in knowing about problems with this product....so I'm doing my civic duty!
