Watch for recalls
Two sites that everyone should have in their feed readers or live bookmarks are the CPSC recall site and the FDA recall site. (At the FDA site, in the center column click Recalls, Product Safety and on the page you go to, click RSS Recalls News Feed in the right column.)
Just today, my family was saved from possible injury by knowing that these wooden stepstools have been recalled - we own three of them. Check the sites daily, or at least weekly, and prevent injuries to your family. Don’t count on recalls making the big blogs, like Sony’s battery recalls have - often only the biggest recalls make headlines.
