SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20180411-AF316-1750946. Matched catalog product: Cuisinart CCO-50BKN Deluxe Electric Can Opener. Source model text: CCO-50N. Incident: The consumer indicates that he used his electric can opened to open a can. When the can opener had rotated three-hundred sixty degrees and was at the starting point, it shaved off a piece of metal into the can. The consumer used the can opened once again to determine if the incident was a one-time matter however it was not as the same thing happened with the second can he opened. The consumer believes this poses a safety hazard as the piece of metal that falls into the can be ingested without the knowledge of a person eating, and causing serious internal injury to them.
