Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20220516-AA77C-2147356179. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Breville Breville Mini Smart Oven Model BOV450XL. Source model text: BOV 900BSSUSC/A. Incident: While using our Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro, Model BOV900 BSSUSC/A, a loud explosion occurred which sent shards of broken glass throughout our kitchen and adjacent rooms. Glass shards covered the countertops and floor, as well as window sills and other surfaces. Apparently the glass oven door spontaneously blew up while cooking, sending shards of glass outward. I was in the kitchen at the time and was startled by the explosion. My husband came running after he heard the explosion and my scream. He then brought me shoes so that I would be protected from the glass shards which were all over the kitchen. It took a couple of hours to remove all of the glass particles which were seemingly everywhere.
