Mr. Qi said that when the accident occurred, the glass rushed like rain, and at the time, many mouths were drawn. More than 20 stitches, more than 6 days of hospitalization. It has been resting for about a month, and medical expenses and hospitalization costs cost about 20,000 yuan.

The house where Mr. Qi lives is a new hardcover house delivered in August 2020. The shower room is well equipped at the delivery. He believes that developers and their commissioned construction parties shall bear the main responsibility for this. In addition, he signed a house purchase contract with the developer, and the legal decoration is still during the maintenance period. Mr. Qi believes that the accident is also related to the quality and installation of the construction party.

Mr. Qi told reporters that after the incident, he had repeatedly requested to negotiate compensation with the developer, but he had not received a reply. To this end, the reporter contacted the developer and decoration of the community.

Staff of Beijing Xiangye Real Estate Co., Ltd.: We can't solve this matter. Mr. Qi asked the person in charge of the decoration of the total bag, and we gave him all the calls. All maintenance and compensation can be contacted, after all, they are our construction units.

The staff of the decoration construction party involved: We sign a contract with the developer. If we compensate, we have no responsibility, and the products have a qualified certificate.

The reporter learned that on the referee document network, there were many similar cases that suddenly burst into the glass door of the shower room. A civil judgment disclosed by the Xuzhou Intermediate People's Court in Jiangsu Province in December 2021 shows that when Gao Mou in Xuzhou took a bath at home, he bought a three -year glass shower room suddenly burst. Gao Mou brought the sales party and the glass manufacturer to the court to let them bear the liability for compensation. The court supported Gao's demand.

Peng Yanjun, a lawyer of Beijing Changhong Law Firm: The parties can prove that there is a direct causal relationship with the cracking of the glass door through the video, photos and the inpatient case of the accident scene, and through professional appraisal agencies in conclusion.

If the broken crack is indeed caused by the quality of the glass, the developer should not only repair and replace the glass door for free, but also compensate the parties' reasonable losses. After the developer assumes the corresponding responsibilities, he can find the decoration chief contractor for recovery. In addition, if the developer argued that the parties were crushed by glass, but there was no evidence to confirm that the court usually did not accept the defense view.
