    The product, in the report: Easy Home brand Electric Fireplace / Heater Unit Made of black metal, glass, and plastic. I don’t know the exact dimensions. I no longer have the product. I returned it to the manufacturer

    CPSC INCIDENT REPORT 7/23/2025 I am reporting a safety incident with an Easy Home brand Electric Fireplace / Heater Unit. The product was purchased from an Aldi store in approximately late 2017 or early 2018. At 10:50pm CST Wednesday 4/30/2025 the unit exploded from the front side. The front glass panel shattered with glass scattered one to two feet in front and to the sides of the unit.

    I originally reported the incident to the customer service contact info provide by the manufacturer on Friday, 5/2/2025. The product was not in use at all at the time of the explosion. I was in the same room as the product, sleeping approximately 8 feet away from the unit. There were no injuries, however, had I been within 4 feet of the unit, it is likely that I would have experienced injuries such as cuts or lacerations or other similar injuries. Below is the text of the original report I provided to the manufacturer, and a second follow up email: 1rst email, Friday 5/2/2025: Hello, I am reporting a safety incident with an Easy Home brand Electric Fireplace / Heater Unit. At 10:50pm CST Wednesday 4/30/2025 the unit exploded from the front side. The front glass panel shattered with glass scattered one to two feet in front and to the sides of the unit. Below is a picture of the unit, and then a picture of the sticker on the back that identifies the unit. I would like an inspection of the unit at my premises. Thank you, ____________

    2nd Email, Wednesday 5/7/2025, responded to the companys questions: Hi _____________, Below are answers to your questions. Also, can you provide me with your case # for this incident? Thank you, _____________ When did the incident occur? Date/Time: Wednesday, April 30th, 10:50pm What occurred? As stated in my original email, the unit exploded from the front side. The front glass panel shattered with glass scattered one to two feet in front and to the sides of the unit. I was asleep when the explosion occurred and the noise made by the explosion woke me up. I also heard the sound of crackling or klinking glass as the glass pieces settled in the room right after. How was there a risk? If a person had been near the glass panel, injury could have resulted from the glass shards being ejected from the unit. Also, at the time it was unknown if there was also an electrical issue occurring at the same time that might have been hazardous. How was the product being used? The product was not in use. It was turned off. Was medical attention sought? No When was medical attention sought? (Date and Time) N/A Was the fire brigade contacted? (Date, Time and Reference #) Yes, Wednesday, April 30th, approximately 11:05 pm. Reference # [REDACTED] Photos of damage/injuries: See attached. Photo of the manufacturing sticker of the unit See attached. Photo of the original receipt: I no longer have the receipt Model Number: BLT-9999T-3-1, 95211, Serial Number: 112524255
