What happened

Bunn-O-Matic has recalled certain home coffeemakers because an electrical failure can cause the plastic pour-in bowl and lid to melt or ignite, creating burn and fire hazards. The recall affects Bunn® 10-cup coffeemakers with model numbers GR-10B, GR-10W, B-10B, B-10W, and BT-10B (including versions ending in "D") that have specific date codes. The recalled units have date codes ending in "01," "02," or "03," or ending in "04" with middle digits between "01" and "21." The model number and date code are stamped on a sticker on the bottom of the machine. The coffeemakers have a black or white plastic base and top, measure 14¼ inches high by 7 inches wide by 13¾ inches deep, and display "BUNN®" in chrome on the front.

If you own one of these coffeemakers, you should unplug it and allow it to cool for at least three hours before checking whether you have a recalled unit. Once you have confirmed your model and date code, you can contact Bunn-O-Matic to receive a free repair or to purchase a replacement unit at a discount.
