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.

    Product: Sierra Bean Pot (thin-walled ceramic bean pot style) - Order [REDACTED] purchased via Amazon.com for $34.19 - ASIN unknown, Manufacturer listed as Sierra. On first use on January 30, 2026, during cooking a bean dish, the pot exploded / shattered due to thin-wall failure. Shards ejected across kitchen. One shard cut my hand, embedding bean particle/debris (see photos: [REDACTED], [REDACTED], [REDACTED], [REDACTED], [REDACTED]). I required first aid ([REDACTED]). Attempted to seek care but [REDACTED] not opened (see email). My husband (adult male, DOB [REDACTED]) has blood-triggered seizure condition - seeing my bleeding hand he collapsed to floor (photo [REDACTED]) with secondary injury risk. No ambulance but high risk. Thin wall cross-section documented in sierra-bean-pot-thin-wall-evidence.pdf versus expected bean pot thickness. Amazon told me “unable to offer refund” despite defect reported inside 30 days. Hazard is shattering / laceration / secondary medical event. Amazon is distributor per CPSC July 30 2024 Decision & Order and Jan 16 2025 Order. Request: CPSC accept as injury/hazard report, order Amazon to refund to original payment [REDACTED] ending [REDACTED] per Amazon-Federal-Fraud-Report, not gift card, and order product removal to prevent additional injuries. For public report, redact full home address to city/state only ([REDACTED]), do not publish hand photo with identifying features, and redact child’s name and personal cell number.
