The product, in the report: Curved Glass sliding tub/shower door made especially for the American Standard Tub. sliding by-pass bath doors come with tempered safety glass for safety housed in a bright silver frame. For use with an American Standard Saver® curved alcove bath tub set in an alcove installation.
Saver Sliding Bath Shower Door: Purchased and installed in our new house October, 2013. Contractor said it was very difficult to install and instructions not clear or well written.
Today, November 23, 2016 - we heard an “explosion” - One of the glass doors spontaneously exploded into thousands of pieces. Luckily, my daughter was not home at the time, and nobody was in the bathroom.
The product , manufactured by American Standard, is sold exclusively through Lowes. Since this happened, I’ve checked a variety of product reviews and it seems this has occurred numerous times, even only after being installed as little as 6 or 7 months. The product costs $400 and should not do this, EVER!
This is a Safety Concern!
