  1. No one hurt

    Made Feb 21, 2025, sent to the company Feb 25, 2025, published by CPSC Mar 18, 2025

    The product, in the report: KitchenAid whisk, light green color plastic handle, short chubby handle, wire whisk.

    I was eating mashed potatoes that I had whipped using a KitchenAid hand whisk, when I noticed something hard and sharp in my mouth. It turned out to be a piece that had broken off the whisk while I was using it. If I had bitten down on it, it would have broken a tooth. Who knows what swallowing it would have done.

    The product, in the report: KitchenAid Gourmet Utility Whisk, 10.5-Inch, Matte Black

    I bought the KitchenAid Gourmet Utility Whisk, 10.5-Inch, Matte Black on Amazon.com. This whisk has a small silver ring at the top of the handle. This morning a piece of the silver piece broke off while I was making a waffle mix. I discovered this when I took a bite of the waffle and bit down on something hard. I found that there were two broken plastic pieces of the handle cooked into the waffle. Luckily, I spat out the hard piece to inspect and did not try to continue chewing or swallow the plastic pieces. I also want to note a piece of the handle had broken off before while I was using it back in December 2020, but that time I noticed the plastic in the mix. I should have thrown it away then. This whisk is dangerous and presents a choking hazard.

  4. First aid

    Made Nov 2, 2020, sent to the company Nov 10, 2020, published by CPSC Nov 25, 2020

    The product, in the report: KitchanAid Peeler Model Euro Peeler UPC 0 24131 40495 7 The product is a fruit and vegetable peeler. It has a black, contoured handle. It is 22cm long over all. There are two blades with sharp teeth, 48mm long. It comes with a plastic “safety cover”.

    Product is a KitchenAid “Euro Peeler” vegatble peeler, purchased yesterday. I suffered a lacerated finger on one hand and a pinched/punctured finger on the other, while trying to remove, then replace, its safety cover. It has two parallel blades facing each other. The blades have very sharp barb-like teeth that gripped my skin and dug deeper as I tried to remove my finger. I hope to see this product recalled because I fear a little ones are going to get fingers stuck in these and experience more than their share of injury, pain, and trauma. It will require special tools to remove a kid’s finger from one of these.

  5. No one hurt

    Made Mar 8, 2019, sent to the company Apr 5, 2019, published by CPSC Apr 26, 2019

    The product, in the report: Kitchen gadget, hand-held wire whisk, 10” length, black handle, chrome trim, brand: KitchenAid.

    Around January 1st, 2019, I purchased two hand-held wire whisks branded “KitchenAid” at a local Kroger Store. In normal use and domestic dishwasher cleaning, the chrome collar on both whisks cracked around the wires leaving a small, sharp, loose plastic fragment which could fall into the food being prepared. This happened on one whisk and the second whisk developed a similar fracture on the collar surrounding the wire. This constitutes a potential contamination hazard to food preparation. The plastic is non-metallic and therefore undetectable by an ordinary medical x-ray. It also has sharp edges which could cause significant injury if ingested. This product needs to be recalled by the manufacturer for the good of the public.

  6. No one hurt

    Made Oct 9, 2015, sent to the company Dec 15, 2015, published by CPSC Dec 30, 2015

    The product, in the report: Kitchen Tongs

    Just over a month ago on August 26, 2015, I wrote to KitchenAid to let them know of a significant problem with their kitchen tongs. The parts are mostly stainless steel and silicone which hold up nicely, but the spring is ferrous which rusts and then falls apart leaving pieces much like a steel pin (one such piece was an inch long, others are shorter) in my food! Somewhat by chance, I found it, avoiding a potentially serious problem. Anyway, I wrote to them and they ignored my letter. I’ll send you the same photos and see if we can avoid future problems with these otherwise good kitchen tongs. Feel free to call or write if I can be further help.
