The product, in the report: Stainless Steel 2 QT Teakettle
Caller purchased stainless steel 2qt teakettle November 13, 2011 but didn’t begin using it until the end of December 2011. He states that when he began using it when he would grab the handle of the teakettle after it whistled to swing around and pour water into his cup the water would slosh around in the teakettle and explode all over the floor and everyplace around.
He has done this many times with the same result each time and has been burned.
He has not contacted the manufacturer because they are in China, but he has contacted Calphon customer relations. Without proper response to these concerns, he is filing this complaint.
He states that this teakettle presents a scalding hazard.
