    My daughter recieved a Spa Fantasy Aromatherapy Fountain for Christmas. While she was using this tonight, one of the containers exploded. The cap blew off, and struck her in the back, thank God that she wasn’t bent over it or had her face in that direction. It actually left a welt on her back. The mixture inside, went all over my mothers living room. It even hit the ceiling. We took a couple of pictures for proof. I am very upset that the company knew that this could happen, but still has not pulled this product off of store shelves. It still bothers me that she could have been really injured. I don’t really want a replacement lid, I don’t want her to play with this any more. Do I have a right to return this to the store.
    thank you
