CPSC received 733 complaints and said that nine people were reported injured from the top-loaders – including a broken jaw, injured shoulder, and a fall.“We’re talking about ... a very serious hazard of the top of these washing machines completely blowing off,” CPSC chairman Elliot Kaye told ABC News. “It is a lot of reports.”One woman was hit after the lid of her machine became airborne during its final spin cycle and hit her so hard she ended up in a cabinet sustaining blows to her jaw and head and bruising to her hip, according to ABC News.[YOUTUBE]Nc4ps-dPoI0[/YOUTUBE] <a href="https://www.rt.com/usa/365346-massive-recall-samsung-washing-machine/" target="_blank">https://www.rt.com/usa/365346-massive-recall-samsung-washing-machine/</a></blockquote>
