  1. Hurt, no treatment

    Made Dec 28, 2013, sent to the company Jan 14, 2014, published by CPSC Jan 30, 2014

    The product, in the report: Discovery Kids Motorized Pottery Wheel. It is Blue and White with a green/yellow wheel.

    After inserting a brand new set of alkaline batteries per instructions and starting to use the product, we noticed smoke coming from bottom of the device. Flipping the product over we saw that the battery compartment was melting and smoke was emanating from it. After removing the screw holding the cover I attempted to remove the batteries as quickly as possible, sustaining a minor burn on my finger in the process. Considering that perhaps the [REDACTED] batteries were the issue, I waited for the device to cool down and installed a new set of [REDACTED] alkaline batteries. Keeping a close watch I observed that the device was beginning to get hot again, so I immediately removed the second set of batteries and ceased using the product altogether.
