What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural defect where parts can explode, and the source explicitly reports at least 17 injuries, meeting the criteria for 'significant injury reports' under the Severe classification.
Plain-English summary
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Singer Sewing Company announced a recall of strainer baskets for approximately 767,000 "Juice Giant Electric Juicers," models 774 and 774B. The recalled units were imported from China and sold in retail stores nationwide from October 1991 to December 1993 for about $60.
The strainer baskets on these models can break apart while in use, which may cause the juicer's plastic upper cover to also break. Broken parts of the strainer basket and plastic cover may explode from the juicer, possibly injuring people nearby. To date, there have been 24 reports of the model 774 strainer basket breaking apart, resulting in at least 17 injuries.
Consumers should stop using the juicer models 774 and 774B and immediately discard or destroy them. The firm is no longer in business, and therefore a remedy is no longer available.
