The product, in the report: Brentwood Electric Hot Pot Model KT-32W. White color. UPC 181225100284
Brentwood Hot pot KT-32W electric kettle. While heating water using the product it leaks water from the inside at the interface of metal section enclosing the heating elements and the plastic portion surrounding it. The product has been in use only for 2 months. The leaking water comes through the bottom of the unit that has many exposed electrical wires that are powered during the operation. This is a safety hazard since chance of electrical shock through the leaking water on surface is very high.

The product, in the report: Brentwood Electric Kettle, Model: KT-1780
Have been using a Brentwood Electric Kettle model: KT-1780. While under normal use the device started to smell of hot plastic; I finally found this kettle to be the source when I noticed smoke coming from the base of the unit. I immediately unplugged it and let it sit. When I investigated the problem; I opened the base and found that the electrical wires were not isolated or shielded from the electric heating element. The base and handle area was totally melted and the wires were all exposed and plastic casing melted away. This is a huge fire safety problem with the device
