Johnson//Becker filed Complaints on behalf of Ms. Conder of Salt Lake City, and Ms. Alegre of Los Angeles, two clients involved in the consolidation.
Both clients experienced painful bodily injuries from their Crock-Pots, which exploded while they were cooking. The clients’ Complaints stated they suffered serious burn injuries as a “result of the Pressure Cooker’s lid being able to be rotated and opened while [it] was under pressure.” The allowing its scalding hot contents to fly out onto the Plaintiffs.
The Complaints also allege that the pressure cooker is unsafe to use, pointing out faulty safety measures.
