The product, in the report: Electric Deep Fryer
The consumer stated that she was using her electric deep fryer 375 degrees for 10 minutes when she smelled a burning plastic odor. The consumer tried to turn the fryer around to see the back of the appliance when she got burnt on her second and third finger of her right hand by melted plastic that was dripping from the back of the deep fryer. The consumer disconnected the appliance and proceeded to apply cold water to her burnt fingers. She discontinued the use of the deep fryer. The consumer had blisters on her fingers for three days after the incident. 2/19/14- The consumer contacted the retailer/manufacturer. The retailer/manufacturer customer service agent indicated to the consumer that her claim would be evaluated by a specialist, but since she bought the product almost one year ago there was nothing they could do for her. The consumer thinks her deep fryer poses a fire hazard to the consumers and should be reported. This product is not affected by a recall.
