Question

MakerMan Manufacturing creates heavy-duty hand tools. It produces a new collapsible hammer called the SmackN’Stash. One of the first purchasers of the hammer, Rob, is using it at a construction site when the hammer’s head flies off and injures his coworker Cliff. How does the concept of defective design/manufacturing apply to this situation?

Answer 1

Anyone who is injured by a defective product may sue the manufacturer, merchants, and all others who handled the product.

Step-by-step explanation:

Design defects is when there is actual flaw in the product original design which makes the product to be unreasonably unfit and dangerous for normal consumption or use.

On the other hand a manufacturing defect is when there is a system error during the process of manufacturing the product and this causes the product to depart fall away from its original intended design.

The design defect makes the entire product to be defective in its whole and so the product will not deliver to the desired expectations.

Defective design is proven when a person suffers injury as a result of a defective product and also more people report similar injuries
