Emergency room Made Jul 14, 2017, sent to the company Aug 24, 2017, published by CPSC Sep 11, 2017
The product, in the report: The blender came with two containers for blending, chopping, and mixing – a large “Pitcher” and a small “Bowl.” Each container had its own blades and its own “Splash Guard.” An interchangeable “Master Pod” powers the blender in either configuration when users press the on/off pulse button. The Pitcher assembly includes an interlock system that prevents Master Pod activation unless the Splash Guard is affixed securely to the Pitcher, effectively shielding the spinning blades from user contact. Inexplicably, the Bowl assembly does not have any similar safety system. (See uploaded User Guide.)
On December 15, 2013, my client, 32-year-old [REDACTED], suffered serious injuries while operating a newly purchased Ninja™ Master Prep™ Professional blender in the kitchen of the apartment she shared with her husband [REDACTED], and 16-month-old son [REDACTED]. [REDACTED] bought the blender approximately two weeks before [REDACTED]’s injury. Before her injury,[REDACTED] had never used the blender. The blender came with two containers for blending, chopping, and mixing – a large “Pitcher” and a small “Bowl.” Each container had its own blades and its own “Splash Guard.” An interchangeable “Master Pod” powers the blender in either configuration when users press the on/off pulse button. (See uploaded User Guide.)
The Pitcher assembly includes an interlock system that prevents Master Pod activation unless the Splash Guard is affixed securely to the Pitcher, effectively shielding the spinning blades from user contact.
Inexplicably, the Bowl assembly does not have any similar safety system.
If an inexperienced user attempting to assemble the blender in its Bowl configuration inadvertently presses the on/off pulse button after inserting the blades through the Bowl Splash Guard into the Master Pod, the exposed blades will activate, inflicting serious injuries.
Shortly before noon, [REDACTED] was attempting to feed [REDACTED], who was particularly fussy that morning. He was crying inconsolably; he would not eat his minestrone soup. She had an idea that if she pureed the soup’s vegetables and pasta, [REDACTED] might be more inclined to eat his lunch. She decided to try this using the new Ninja blender.
She retrieved the blender components from the counter, poured [REDACTED]’s soup in the blender Bowl, and attempted to put together the blades, Splash Guard, and Master Pod to complete the assembly.
She must have inadvertently pressed the on/off pulse button on the Master Pod, because suddenly, without warning, the exposed blades started spinning in her hand, inflicting severe laceration injuries to her right hand, index finger and middle finger.
[REDACTED] contends the blender was defective primarily because the blender Bowl configuration did not have an interlock system – like the Pitcher configuration – to prevent the exposed blades from spinning and inflicting injury when a user inadvertently presses on/off pulse button.
