Black & Decker Spacemaker 12-cup coffeemakers are recalled because their handles can break, causing cuts and burns. This hazard affects units sold after a 2012 recall, and consumers must stop using them immediately.
The coffee pot handle can break during normal use, leading to cuts and burns. This happens because the handle is made of glass with a molded design that may fracture under stress.
Owners of Black & Decker Spacemaker 12-cup coffeemakers with model number SDC 740 or similar units sold after 2012 are affected. Anyone using these coffeemakers under a cabinet is at risk of injury from a broken handle.
