How badly anyone was hurt

As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    The product, in the report: Siphon soda maker

    WARNING DANGEROUS PRODUCT & UNACCEPTABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

    This happened to my husband while using a siphon purchased from Williams Sonoma only three months ago. While he was attempting to charge the siphon with gas, it suddenly exploded in his hands, sending shattered glass all over our kitchen.

    Thank God the glass did not hit his eyes or cause a more serious injury. His hand is still painful after the incident. This could have ended very differently if a piece of glass had struck his face or if a child had been standing nearby.

    I have sent emails, left messages, and spoken directly with customer service. Despite the seriousness of this incident, Williams Sonoma has refused to refund or accept the product back. Instead, I was offered a 20% discount toward another purchase.

    Seriously? A product purchased only three months ago explodes in my husbands hands, potentially causing a serious injury, and the response is a 20% discount on our next purchase?

    That is not an acceptable resolution to a serious product-safety incident. I am extremely disappointed with the way Williams Sonoma has handled this matter and with the apparent lack of concern for customer safety.
