First aid Made Feb 9, 2012, sent to the company Feb 16, 2012, published by CPSC Mar 9, 2012
The product, in the report: All house robes with large sleeve openings bigger than a typical jacket or shirt sleeve. Below is an old robe that I currently own and the sleeve opening is 8 inches in diameter
The large sleeve of my wifes and my house robes have cought the handles of various cooking vessels when cooking.
On three occasions grease from frying pans was splashed onto the stove and burner resulting in fires. Two were put out without damage except to a small rug quickly dampened and placed over the fire. The third time the grease fire ran down the stove and caused extensive damage to the floor, cabinets and minor burns to my wifes feet. This one require a fire extingusher.
On a minimum of five times pots of boiling water/food the handles were caught in the large sleeve and dumped the liquid on the stove and area around the stove. Each of these times resulted in painful burns to me or my wife.
We have had numerous incidents of the pot/pan handles catching in the sleeve which did not result in serious incidents as above but all had the potential to be very serious.

The large opening is of no praticle use unless you have boxing gloves on when you put it on.

Thank You Suggest that robe manufactures reduce the sleeve size to a
