Applica Consumer Products is reannouncing the recall of approximately 641 Black & Decker Spacemaker 12-Cup Programmable Under-the-Cabinet Coffeemakers (model SDC 740) that were sold after an initial 2012 recall. The glass coffee pot handle can suddenly break, which can cause the pot to fall and shatter. This defect has resulted in over 1,607 reports of handles breaking, including 83 reports of burns or cuts to consumers. These units were sold in white or black at True Value Hardware Stores between July 2008 and June 2013 for between $50 and $80. Consumers should stop using the coffeemakers immediately and contact the manufacturer for a full refund.
The molded handle on the 12-cup glass carafe can break off during use, causing the pot to fall. This poses a serious risk of lacerations from broken glass and thermal burns from spilled hot coffee.
Consumers should immediately stop using the coffeemakers and contact Applica for a full refund of the under-the-counter coffeemaker.
