Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    The consumer has been using bandages to cover all the small cuts she has received on both of her hands. The consumer indicates that the deepest cut she received was on her right hand, approximately half a centimeter in length, while the other cuts were approximately a centimeter in length but superficial.
