Reported Injuries or Damages
The reports describe hot water spitting, spewing, spraying, spilling out, leaking or otherwise exiting the steamers. CPSC calls this a risk of serious burn injuries. These are reports to CPSC. They are not court findings. Reports are not proof that the steam cleaner caused every injury. Mayo Clinic says major burns need emergency medical help. It advises calling 911 or going to the emergency room if a burn is larger than 3 inches (about 8 centimeters) across. The same advice applies when a burn affects the face, hands, feet, genitals, buttocks or major joints, or goes through all layers of skin.Recall and Regulatory Background
