No one hurt Made Mar 28, 2012, sent to the company Apr 4, 2012, published by CPSC Apr 18, 2012
The product, in the report: Kitchenaid Double Oven | 30” Width | 4.3 cu. ft. Capacity | Even-Heat™ True Convection System in Upper Oven | Architect® Series II Color: Stainless Steel Wall-mounted, self-cleaning
At approximately 2pm on the day of the incident, the upper oven (Kitchenaid double wall oven Model KEBS207SSS02, purchased in 2008) was turned on and preheating to 425°F. The oven remained on while preheating for about 10 minutes, but was then turned off manually and not used again until 5:30 pm. At this time the upper oven was heated to 375°F to reheat restaurant pizza on a cookie sheet. During this time the oven functioned normally and the food and cookie sheet were removed from the oven. Around 5:45 pm, the oven temperature was adjusted to 475°F and preheated normally. The oven was empty at this time. At 6:15 pm a frozen pizza was placed on a cookie sheet in the oven on the middle rack. The oven continued to bake for 15 minutes. At 6:32 pm, three adults were in the kitchen. I turned on the oven light, pushing the button labeled “Oven Light.” As I stepped to the left side of the oven, I heard a loud pop and saw fissures form on the inner glass panel of the upper oven. The glass immediately shattered and exploded out the bottom of the oven door. I was not injured, but hot glass exploded onto the floor, on my pants and shoes. Just prior to the explosion I had been near the oven door, looking directly into the oven from the outside. The glass could have cut my face, sending shards into my eyes. Glass shards ranging from 0.25 in to 1 in in length were found in areas at least 3 feet away from the oven. Immediately the oven was turned off, but the oven light remained on. Glass was coving the inside of the oven. Broken glass was found in between the outer-most glass panel and the second pane. A red rubber seal from the inside of the door was also loose and could be seen hanging from the inside oven door panel. Glass was found in the seal around the oven doors, in the door hinges, and in the tracks of the bottom rack.
