After purchasing a Rival Cofee maker at Wal Mart I planned to enjoy a cup the next morning. Well, I ended up with third degree burns across my right wrist. I now live with the pain, suffering and the anger of being another victim of the negligence of PIL Overseas Holdings Co. CHINA DBA Rival.

I took the initiative and searched online and found that people like me were getting burned not just by pulling the carafe out and the filter holder popping off but also by putting the carafe back and the filter holder popping off...people from all over the country!! Not a surprise to find crock pots and toasters to be hazardous too!
