We had a tempered glass sink in our restroom that exploded, the brand is Pegasus. The tempered glass sink seemed to be in perfect condition (it was less than a year old), including the last time we saw it as we went out at night. When I came home from a night out with my wife, the door to the restroom wouldn't open due to the glass blocking its path on the floor. We know it had to have exploded due to items being knocked over next to what used to be our sink and pieces of glass, both large and small, reaching the shower (which is not close to where the sink was). It's clear from the aftermath that this product could have severely hurt someone considering glass of all size was flying in different directions. We know for a fact nothing hot was left resting on it, nothing fell on it, it exploded without interaction and thankfully nobody was hurt. We decided to Google "tempered glass sink explodes" and found that we aren't the only ones to experience this. We bought a porcelain sink and will recommend to anyone that wants to listen to stay away from these products. Shocking that they have not removed it from sale considering the reports.

I have Moen brand bathroom and kitchen fixtures in my condo, of which I am the first owner. The cartridge in the kitchen faucet became unreliable in mixing the temperature of the water discharged. I read through the instructions which were provided with the faucet, called the company, and ordered the replacement cartridge. The faucet comes with lifetime replacement of certain parts. I had a great deal of difficulty removing the cartridge using the instructions provided with the faucet and another copy provided with the replacement cartridge. They appeared identical. I used a pair of pliers as instructed, and it slipped off the cartridge head. I believe this was because the cartridge was amply greased to allow the rise and fall of a center stem. The wrench deeply scratched one lense in a pair of glasses and caused an abrasion of my eye cornea. I spoke with a Moen Customer Representative a couple of times during my attempts to replace the cartridge. I was never told that there are after-market cartridge removers that make the process of removing a cartridge safer and easier. I was told about the after market product by a hardware store clerk, who noted that even professional plumbers have problems removing Moen cartridges.

I have (had) a glass vessel sink (Kraus GV-101) on a soapstone vanity in the bathroom. I placed a flower pot in the sink, left it there for about 30 seconds, turned on the water and the sink exploded in my face. Broken glass flew more than 10 feet through the open door. The glass is tempered and broke into chunks as it should, and I was uninjured.

I purchased a glass vessel sink one and half years ago. Yesterday, the sink exploded. I am so grateful that no one was home. I phoned Home Depot Customer Service and the Manufacturer for options. I was informed that it was NOT there responsibility, the sink is no longer under warranty and nothing they can do for me. I must say I am extremely disappointed. There is no warning on the box, the associates don't alert you to potential deadly defect and the manufacturer refuse to take responsibility.

Our VIGO vessel sink exploded for no reason. I purchased it in January of 2016 and have been using it for over a year and a half. Today, Aug 6, 2017, it sounded like a bomb going off!! My wife was cleaning floor nearby and she ended up cit up pretty good wand covered in glass!

my glass tempered sink shattered on its own..

On August 17th, 2018 at 2:45 pm, my wife and I were sitting in the kitchen when we heard what sounded like an explosion upstairs. It turns out that our bathroom glass bowl sink exploded and sent shards of glass all over the room. Fortunately nobody was hurt. There must have been several hundreds of pieces of glass everywhere, in the tub, toilet bowl and into the hallway.

A Kraus glass bowl bathroom sink exploded. It was not in use at the time. Fortunately no one was in the bathroom. It literally exploded sending shards throughout the bathroom, hallway and living room.
