Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260824-02D27-2147312012. Matched catalog product: Samsung Model Number- RF18HFENBSR US. Source model text: MS19DG8500SRAA. Incident: On August 23, 2026, my son heated a ramekin in our Samsung microwave for approximately 15 seconds. When he opened the microwave door, a piece of the glass turntable plate flew out of the microwave and struck his hand, cutting him. The rest of the glass plate remained intact. We do not know exactly when or how the piece broke off, but the plate had not previously been cracked, dropped, or damaged, and the microwave was being used normally. The microwave is practically new - it was manufactured in February 2026 and purchased in May 2026, making it only about three months old at the time of the incident.
