Incident Details
  • Incident Description: I was using a Crux air fryer I had purchased at Macy's only one week before so it was new. The setting was on warm to warm up tortillas. I noticed there was some smoke. It was coming from the underside of the air fryer. I unplugged it and turned it over and there was more smoke and fire. It started a fire in my kitchen and burned down my entire apartment. I lost everything.
