Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20161121-76BBE-2147410526. Severity: Injury, No First Aid or Medical Attention Received. Matched catalog product: Cuisinart CCO-50BKN Deluxe Electric Can Opener. Source model text: Model DCC-1150. Incident: Purchased a new Cuisinart Model DCC-1150 Coffee Maker to be used in an office by 5 people. The FIRST time we used it the carafe leaked hot coffee from the poring spout which ran down the pot and dripped hot coffee on the user. I called Cuisinart and was advised that since this coffee pot is being used by a business, the warranty is void. Due to the hazardous issue with this carafe, we are no longer using it. I can understand that a warranty would have a shorter limitation if it is being used in an office environment, but that should be no excuse for one that is hazardous and new out of the box.
