Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20210525-98885-2147363924. Severity: Injury, Seen by Medical Professional. Product: Anchor Hocking Oven Basics 4.8-quart Glass Baking Shipped on December 31, 2020 Items Ordered Pric (Anchor Hocking Oven Basics 4.8-quart Glass Baking Shipped on December 31, 2020 Items Ordered Price 1 of: Anchor Hocking Oven Basics 4.8-quart Glass Baking Dish, Rectangular, Set of 1 Sold by: Amazon.com Services LLC Condition: New $19.05 Shipping Address: � [REDACTED] Shipping Speed: Two-Day Shipping). Incident: This happened on 5/22/2021 around 7:30 pm. Dish was less than 5 months old. Use about five to ten times only. Anchor Hocking Oven Basics 4.8-quart Glass Baking Dish, Rectangular, Set of 1, exploded in cabinet when lightly touched with another dish. EXPLODED!!! Shattered into a hundred sharp shards of glass. 70% of the shards traveled all directions in cabinet. 30% flew out towards me with great force. One sharp piece of glass impaled itself in the top of my foot at an angle making about a 1 inch cut and a puddle of blood. I had a few other tiny pieces of glass hit my feet in a few other places and had several small cuts on the top and sides of my feet. I needed a doctor. This was in a lower cabinet at floor level, and the force of the explosion sent the glass flying sideways. The dish was firmly resting on the shorter side on a thick rubber lining at the bottom of the cabinet. The glass was at room temperature, as was the glass next to it. I did NOT drop it or bang anything into it!!! I�m in my 50�s and cook all the time. I have never seen glass react like this before. So dangerous!!! Broken glass and blood everywhere!!!! What would have happened if this was a higher cabinet at face level???? I could have lost an eye! Please stop selling this product or other low quality dangerous glassware that is not tempered. Look on amazon for more reviews like this. This has happened to many other people too!!!!!!
