According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Macys Merchandising Group has recalled close to one million pieces of the Martha Stewart Collection Enamel Cast Iron Casseroles cookware. The product is said to pose a laceration and burn hazard. The items were sold at Macys stores between June 2007 and June 2011 for between $25 to $170. For more information consumers are encouraged to contact Macys toll-free at (888) 257-5949 or visit www.macys.com.
Commentary
In my experience a manufacturer would not recall nearly one million pieces of product if the product did not pose a serious health risk. Typically these companies have identified a hazard and are attempting to mitigate future liability from injury claims. Because this is a large recall to a line of product with 4 years of retail customers should immediately stop the use of this product and consult with Macys.
