Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20230205-9F2DD-2147350932. Severity: No Incident, No Injury. Product: Fellow Stagg EKG EE01AA1A (Fellow Stagg EKG electric kettle, polished steel). Incident: The handle fell off this electric kettle without warning when I picked it up, the lid fell off when the kettle fell onto the counter, and it dumped boiling water everywhere. The handle turned out to have been poorly secured to the body with one small screw which was hidden inside the handle and not visible. The only reason I wasn't burned was most of the water went onto the counter and only some onto my pants which were pretty thick. This easily could have caused significant burns in a slightly different situation. This isn't a safe product.
