I used the Barbecue Genius 2 Way grill brush to clean my grill prior to grilling chicken. While eating dinner my husband discovered a piece of metal in his tongue. After closer inspection we discovered that the piece of metal was a brass bristle from the wiry side of the grill brush. We looked at the grill brush and discovered more wire bristles were loose. The brush was purchased at the end of May and has been used between 5 and 10 times.

Cleaned hot grill with the grill brush. A small bristle was left behind, but I didn't see it. Cooked food on the grill and the food picked up the bristle. I ate the food and the bristle was lodged in my throat. Required a trip to the emergency room to have it removed. When the brush is used on a hot grill, heat is conducted through the wire bristle to the plastic base. The plastic surrounded the bristle melts and releases the bristle.

I was opening a package for Cerama Bryte Scraper & Pad Combo (PC# 4859828001) and received an approxiamately one inch laceration that required stiches to close. There were also two superficial cuts that didn't need any medical attention. I looked again at the packaging (a soft plastic) and noted that there are no warnings that there is an exposed razor blade without any cover in the package. The urgent care clinic that I went to made sure that I was going to report this safety problem. This is a major safety concern and anyone could be injured, even just handling the package.

My boyfriend was using the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on the wall in our apartment to get out scuff marks -- no sooner had he started then he started seeing blood on the eraser -- he looked down at his hand and his middle finger was bleeding through the skin -- and his other fingers on his hand were getting redder and more irritated by the minute. It was clearly from the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and he ran to the sink to run water on it. That didn't help, he tried milk, thinking it might be a PH-balance thing -- needless to say he was in excruciating pain, and for something that is packaged as a "Magic" Eraser -- without huge warning labels -- to do something that severe is just irresponsible.

I was mopping my floor with the "Pine-Sol Microfiber Self Wringing (Easy Squeeze Twist Design for Wet Mopping) mop when the top dark green plastic part came off (the part with the hole in it so you can hang the mop on a hook). As I tried to put it back on, my hand slipped and hit the opening of the metal tube (since the tube is hollow, it forms a circle of steel, which is almost razor sharp). This cut deeply into my middle finger in a crescent-like shape and my finger started bleeding profusely. I don't think there is any nerve damage and I bandaged my finger. But bottom line, there is no reason for this part of a mop to be so sharp. This is an extreme safety hazard, especially since the plastic top part easily comes/pops off. I called Pine-Sol and explained the above to someone, who then told me she wasn't the right person to hear this. She transferred me to the mop, etc. division. I left a call back number, but no one has called me back. That's why I'm writing this.

Grill brush losing bristles within a month of purchase. Third such grill brush and all three lost their bristles, which have the potential to stick to the grill and get stuck to food.

While eating a hamburger grilled on a home grill I found a wire bristle in my mouth. We had cleaned the grill prior to cooking with a Weber grill brush. The brush had been recently purchased at a local hardware store. Upon closer examination of the brush we discovered another wire that became easily dislodged with a gentle tug.

The product went on fire after charging it first time, and i had to pour the water on it immediately! And the product was burnt, it was very dangerous.
