If anyone has this food processor there is a recall. The model number on the bottom is 169203 and it should be returned to Walmart for a full refund. Walmart has received a total of 58 incident reports: 24 reports of the food processor operation without the lid in place, of which 21 resulted in injuries to fingertips; and 34 reports of the unit smoking, including 3 reports of fires
The recall on this is dated May 25. So---if you want to take the announcement with you, you can find it at www.walmartstores.com/recalls. I printed a copy to take with me.
