Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20140510-7C339-2147444666. Matched catalog product: Cuisinart TOB-40. Incident: I purchased a Cuisinart Toaster/Broiler Oven. Model TOB-40, Serial Number 30802. It was purchased online from Amazon.com though it was provided to them directly from Cuisinart. Purchased 12/7/2013, arrived 12/9/2013. Worked as described until 5/9/2014. While cooking a pizza, both within the pizza maker company recommendations and within the usage recommendations provided by Cuisinart, the the glass on the front "door" of the oven shattered when I opened it. The entire door failed - handle came off, and the left side of the door came off too! Glass shattered to a distance of greater than one meter from the toaster oven. I have a few pictures, taken with my mobile phone, showing the damage.
