The overhead handle on coffee serving tray cracked off under the weight of the filled coffee cups and filled creamer and sugar pot. This resulted in the tray falling to the ground in front of me. I received second degree burns on the tops of our feet and ankles from the coffee. The tray had almost never been used before and was never dropped or abused and showed no signs of damage to warn us before it happened. One or two seconds prior to when the handle completely cracked off I heard an audible ping. The handle appeared to be very poorly designed and seemed much to week and brittle to support the weight of the filled tray.

The tv tray collapsed suddenly, as it didn't have screws holding the supports in. My food went all over me and the floor. The tray hit me. Luckily it didn't cut me, even though it has some sharper edges, and my food was no longer hot, so it didn't burn me, but I could see this causing potential injuries. I reached out to the company, but they just said it was outside of the return window and didn't recognize it as being a quality or safety concern.

March 12, 2017 Sir: This letter is to inform your agency about what maybe a serious health risk associated with a product produced in Thailand. On February 19, 2017, I purchased a TV tray from the Target store located in Falls Church, Virginia - a copy of the sales receipt is enclosed. The TV tray is described in the enclosed "flyer" which came with the product. The flyer states: "Durable Top wood surface wipes clean quickly and easily." The tray does not have any visible coating or paint. The flyer displays the tray in what appears to be with a walnut finish. The TV tray I purchased did not have any visible coating. In fact, the surface appeared to be that of unfinished wood. The problem I encountered arose when I stained the tray's surface with a walnut stain on Monday, March 5, 2017. The use of the stain apparently reacted with what must be a coating intended to make it easier to clean the tray's surface. The application of the walnut stain may have caused an invisible and odorless gas to be produced. This caused me to experience a breathing problem which is still evident today. I had to remove the tray from my apartment in order to stop breathing the gas. As I write this letter, I still feel some minor breathing problems from the side effects from the gas. If this is a common problem with this product, it could prove to be very dangerous to people with respiratory conditions. I trust your agency will look into this product to prevent possible harm to others. Sincerely, [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED]

Bacon Wave Microwave Bacon Tray partially melted when I cooked bacon in the microwave, following package directions. The tray has vertical ribs to hold the bacon strips. Plastic skewers are pierced through the slices to hold them in place. One of the ribs melted and was deformed. Another rib melted and had a piece of bacon embedded in the melted plastic. Also there was a chip of plastic embedded in at least one of the pieces of bacon. There may have been more that we inadvertently ate!! Unfortunately we did not notice the melting until we were cleaning the device, after we had eaten the bacon. Since we have no way to know if we ate any plastic, we don't know if we were victims or not. Therefore we are not reporting any victims.

I think the product got hotter that recommended (200) but did not even consider it could explode. I guess there is not a vent hole to prevent explosion if too hot and I have attached pictures. The pressure was so great that it cracked a pizza stone that was in the broiler section under the oven. The insert blew out of the Tray and was on fire in the bottom of the oven. I'm surprised the front glass did not blow out of the oven. You can see the pressure as the tray is buckled and the top section partially came apart from the bottom. We were about 30 seconds from removing from the oven and it could have seriously injured or killed people in the kitchen.
