Woman says her oven exploded while making dinner

A Colorado woman says her oven exploded Wednesday night, and it's not the first time she's had issues with the kitchen appliance.

Judy Waldo of Denver told Denver7 that she was making dinner Wednesday night and was opening the door of her Frigidaire oven when the glass door shattered and sprayed shards all over her kitchen.

A similar incident occurred four months ago. Waldo told Denver7 the oven wasn't even on at the time.

A rash of complaints about exploding ovens from major brands like Frigidaire, Whirlpool and GE have been reported by customers over the last few years, Denver7 reported.

While Waldo feels that she is not receiving a satisfactory response from Frigidaire this time around, a company statement to Denver7 said: "We take the safety of our products very seriously. If a consumer believes that their product is not performing as expected, we urge them to call our customer service to discuss whether service is needed."
