Hope none of us are typing w/ ONE HAND from any such injurie
OK, this brings memories of how my reading in the old in CONSUMER REPORTS magazines, that the Maytag washer's tub took the longest to stop...
I, at the same time, remember hearing a story of a man who reached into a fast-moving washer tub, (losing an arm & the machine most likely splattered w/ his blood, as well as the just-washed laundry inside getting dirtied up inside), & my mom having a 'Tag (& somehow relating the theory, while not knowing the arm may have been snagged along a garment along the side of the tub at the time) from this era, too...
While I don't know if the man in this story had been suffering the injury of a defective product, been careless (as this boy we're reading about), or maybe risking a "personal injury" (remembering grandma's GE's lid instructions "limited" as they were at least having the statement; "TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY,"...) in order to win a frivolous lawsuit...
But a product is only as safe as your proper usage of it & watching your kids, as well as educating them on the inherent dangers of machinery...
The blender also comes to mind of being a hazardous appliance w/ no safety switch & accidents likely to happen there from mis-use (my mom refused to buy me a real one at a tender age that I was fascinated with blenders & unfortunately had broken one--maybe TWO--toy one/s I had been given)...
In which case, I refuse to plug mine in until I have all the ingredients of what I'm blending loaded in & the lid completely on... And when my blending is completely done, I'll usually just take the glass right off its base...
There are probably old food processors, too, lacking the safety switches activated with and/or without attachments in place, that the newer ones have...
But people, whatever the case I hope to never read about anything like this happening to any one of us (or any of our friends or relatives) here!
Be Safe!
