Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20181004-1BF95-2147385196. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Samsung NE58F9500SS. Incident: I have this Samsung cooking range with model number NE58F9500SS and found out that is causing a danger in the kitchen because the range top knobs turns too easily. The knobs are at adult hip height and turns on with the slightest contact -- a simple brush against the stove and a burner turns on. For us this resulted in a burning some of my placemats that was on the glass top and there are other few instances that might have caused a fire if we didn't see it. -- this is a serious issue that Samsung needs to address.
