Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260525-0F527-2147318688. Severity: No Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Cuisinart CCO-50BKN Deluxe Electric Can Opener. Source model text: GR-11. Incident: A Cuisinart panini press started an electrical fire. The cord directly below the prongs sparked and lit on fire while plugged in and in use. I quickly unplugged it and the entire prong portion broke off from the cord that was lit on fire. It was not an electrical issue as there is no problem with the power source after inspection and you can see the fire started from the cord itself where it pulled apart from itself due to the fire melting the cord.
