    The product, in the report: AVANTCO GDC-23-HC 28 reach in cooler bought August 2017 10 months old

    I bought a reach in cooler for my restaurant and the only thing holding on the door of 50 lbs is the trim plastic and it broke and hit my employee in the head giving her concussion bleeding in her head after hitting her. The door will never hold the way it is built and is unsafe to be on the market pitchers in closed of the little piece of plastic that holds the door on.
