Emergency room Made Apr 30, 2012, sent to the company May 8, 2012, published by CPSC May 22, 2012
The product, in the report: Spring Loaded Drawer Dividers. Used to separate items in drawers 4in H x 2 3/4 in W x 11 3/4 - 18 1/4 in D Product made of plastic and metal. Hollow ivory plastic with metal tension “spring” inside
The Dream Drawer spring loaded Drawer dividers were installed into a dresser drawer. The plastic dividers stay in place using tension of a metal tension bar, or spring according to the company packaging. Upon reaching into the drawer to pull out an item, the product exploded sending the plastic pieces into the air, and ejected the metal tension spring that is in the middle of the product. The product exploded with such force that the metal tension spring knocked off my eye glasses and the edge of the metal cut open both my cheek and the cornea of my eye. Both my face and eye were bleeding and I was sent to the hospital. The doctor stated my cornea was badly cut, and had it not been for my eye glasses, the metal tension spring could have gone into my eye even further causing permanent damage and possible blindness.
Their are no installation instructions or warnings on the package. My concern is that there are other defective products out there that could cause severe harm to other users, all of whom are unaware of the dangers due to faulty materials and inadequate warnings and packaging. This product is dangerous enough that it could potentially blind a user or cause other serious injuries and damages, should an incident like this happen again.
