Household Appliance
Defects and Dangers |
|
| According to Consumer
Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reports, there
are approximately 900,000 emergency-room treated
injuries and over 400 deaths each year caused by
household appliances. |
| A high percentage
of injuries associated with household appliances
are burn injuries sustained in fires caused
by appliances with faulty wiring or other defects.
A number of other serious injuries, such as
limb amputations, occur due to various safety
defects in appliances such as washing machines,
vacuum cleaners, automatic/garage doors and
paper shredders. |
