Why it's dangerous
ChokingElectric shock
The electric wires of the power cable of the appliance can come loose or slip out of its connection, making live parts accessible. The user can therefore receive an electric shock. Additionally, the button enabling steam to be released is can easily come loose. Being a small part, small children can put it in the mouth and choke.
