Talk about hot coffee!
The Consumer Product Safety Commission warned today that Black & Decker Thermal Coffeemakers might overheat and melt.
The commission announced a recall of Black & Decker eight-cup programmable thermal coffeemakers with model numbers TCM1000KT and TCM1000IKT printed on the rating plate on the bottom of the coffeemaker.
The appliance was sold at Wal-mart and small retail stores nationwide from April 2008 through July 2009 for between $50 and $65, the commission said.
For additional information, contact Applica Consumer Products Inc., which distributed the coffeemaker. Applica customer service representatives can be reached at (866) 699-4595 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. EDT on weekdays. Information is also on the company’s website at www.acprecall.com.
