    The product, in the report: 2.5 liter Deep Fryer

    COMPLAINT AGAINST Farberware Made in China - dist by Wal-Mart - bought in Moosic, PA Complaint Letter: No Share with Media: Yes COMPLAINT DESCRIPTION Used fryer once without incident. Next time while it was heating up it made a crackling noise then blew hot oil out all over my daughter. She ran away and asked if she should turn it off. I said to stay back. 10 seconds later it blew the lid off this time. I ran to the panel and turned off the electric to the whole house. I went back to the kit and we looked at the mess, stunned. Then it blew up a third time with no power and totally emptied the oil and it hit the ceiling and covered the cabinets, ran down the wall behind cabinets, in drawers, fridge etc. 2.5 liters of hot oil everywhere and the kit stinks.
