First aid Made Jul 30, 2011, published by CPSC Aug 25, 2011
The product, in the report: Juicer extractor. White plastic housing with clear top and side windows. Made in China on the bottom. The box says Aroma 1996.
( I filed this report originally on 3/31/2011, but I don’t believe it was fully processed). On 2/27/2011, I was using the Aroma ACJ-250 juicer extractor when it exploded with a “boom”. The light fixture above my head was shattered and fell onto me. Sharp plastic and shredded metal shrapnel shot out in all directions, traveling 20 feet to my left and 15 feet to my right. The walls of the rooms were what contained the debris from traveling further. My left hand was lacerated and my chest bruised from the force of the explosion. Fruit juice and skin from my juicing efforts splattered and stained the ceiling, walls, cabinets, floor, my face clothing, body, everything I had on the counter and the rug in the adjoining room. Basically, the entire kitchen was a stained mess. It was a very traumatic event which stays with me. I am SO fortunate my face wasn’t over the juicer and that I did not lose an eye or sustain life threatening injuries. I am relieved that my 10 year old son, who was helping me juice prior to the event had left the room and that no one else in our household or our pets got in the line of the trajectory pieces of shrapnel. I found pieces of shrapnel for weeks after cleaning up on that day. This was no way for me to have started my birthday. My present in this is that I didn’t get more seriously injured, but the “what ifs” haunt me.
My husband looked on line and found out this product had been recalled many years back, though that message did not reach me. Since then, I learned that the company had no notification in service to alert consumers. I have called Aroma housewares 5 times and left detailed messages with their legal department to discuss what happened to me, but they have never returned the call.
