Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20151114-DC9EC-2147426706. Severity: Injury, Emergency Department Treatment Received. Matched catalog product: Ninja BL770. Source model text: BL770A. Incident: I received the Ninja Mega Kitchen system blender as a Christmas gift in December 2013. As I unpacked the box and tried to take the 64 oz blender out of the box, I couldn't get it to release from the styrofoam. I pulled up on the handle not knowing that it was a locking mechanism. As I pulled the blender from the box, the top pulled off and the bottom of the blender fell away while the chopping blade fell out. The chopping blade lacerated the back of my leg, severing my sural nerve. My leg was operated on and an attempt to reconnect the sural nerve was attempted. Unfortunately, I deal with the pain daily from the injury almost two years later.
