Good day my fellow sparktainians. I just got this email forn the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) about new and easier ways to recieve Recall notices. CPSC is responisible for all the product safety recalls regarding product we buy and use every day. Although I have posted only notices regarding recalled electrical products, there are many more that i do not post. A majoity of the recalls involve kids and baby clothing, toys, and furniture. They are usually deem unsafe because of faulty design that can cause injury or they do not meet the requirement for lead.
You can customize what information you recieve and with the addition of multiple electronic media that is available, it is easier than ever to recieve notices that fit your techno life style. Feel free to share with any one and every one. Have a good day and stay safe:

When we first launched CPSC recall e-mails, many other electronic forms of communications didn't exist.
Now that so many of you receive information in multiple ways, we want to make sure you know all the ways you can receive recall information from CPSC.
