As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

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.

  1. First aid

    Made Mar 13, 2012, sent to the company Mar 21, 2012, published by CPSC Apr 6, 2012

    The product, in the report: Gevalia CM500 12-cup Coffee Maker with glass carafe

    Immediately after brewing a pot of coffee, I lifted the lid to remove the old coffee filter and grounds. The condensation on the lid slid down the lid and hit a baffle that’s likely intended to reduce the mess on your countertop. This baffle redirects the water back toward the heating element/percolator. When the condensation hit the heating element, it shot the hot water toward me. The water did not hit me in the face, but it cold have if it were pointed at me. As it was, it just sprayed boiling water droplets on my hand. I would consider it a design defect to have the hot water exit point on a location (the lid) that can lift to point it at you.
