Easy Bake Oven Recall

If anybody has or knows anybody that has this oven, please have them return it (click on the picture to take you to the recall form). Ashley got her fingers caught in it on Sunday. Luckily the oven was off and we were eventually able to get her fingers out without any serious harm, but it really scared her and us. I can only imagine what would have happened if it were on. We had just been talking about the recall, and had it out in order to return it. We had our backs to her and all the sudden she started screaming. You see, the spring loaded door that allows the little cakes to go in and out of the oven, opens easily when pushed, but once it closed her fingers essentially got stuck between the door and the oven and the more she pulled the more it "crushed" her fingers. All we needed to do was push the doors from the outside, but it took 4 adults and a very long 60 seconds or so to figure that out. She was screaming and I was in a complete state of panic. Send it back!

Oh my poor Ashley. I was just reading about that recall for that very reason! I remember having an easy bake oven as a kid..and I was looking to get this one for Olivia but then saw it was recalled.
