The product, in the report: Lysol Disinfecting Wipes
Lysol designed their wipe canister to partially dispense another wipe when you pull one out. Sometimes the partially dispensed wipe comes out too much and you have to push it back in or the lid wont close. On 7/8/15, I pulled a wipe out and the second wipe came out too much for the lid to close. I pushed the second wipe back into the container and instantly my finger started bleeding and hurting. There are very sharp parts inside the canister and when I pushed the wipe back into the container, the skin from my cuticle to my first finger bend (on my index finger) had been sliced off my finger. I contacted Reckitt Benckiser via email on 7/9/15. On 7/10/15, their Consumer Relations contacted me and asked if I wanted to speak with their medical department but I declined and told him I think the redness was due to the skin being sliced off and not to infection. Lysol is aware of the sharp parts inside the canister and they even warn in their directions, DO NOT PUSH FINGER THROUGH OPENING, but they don’t tell you what to do when the partially dispensed wipe is preventing the lid from closing. I’m not the only person who injured myself on the sharp parts, I read another person on Amazon cut themselves on the packaging too. I would have to guess that a lot of people hurt themselves on the packaging since there’s no other way to close the lid without pushing the excess wipe back into the canister. I tried to upload a picture of my finger to this report but it wouldn’t work for some reason.
