Did You See the Latest Product Recall?
September 24th 2008 by Dr.MOZ in Dangerous Toys, Family Safety, Recalls
Keeping up-to-date with the incredible number of baby product and toy recall warnings is proving to be an impossible task for parents these days, so I decided to create a dedicated recall page to help organize the information into a single page that could be easily scanned. Parents can now access a single recall page with the latest CPSC warnings by clicking on the “Recalls” button at the top of the screen. Better yet, bookmark the recall page by clicking the “Ctrl” and the “D” button at the same time to save it to your favorites. Product recalls will also be highlighted by product name and announcement date in the sidebar at the right of the screen to let you know that new warnings have been released.
Subscribers will also receive product recall updates in Dr.MOZ’s future newsletters, so why not join? To join our newsletter (1) type your email address in the text box on the right, and (2) click the “Add Me Dr.MOZ!” button to receive our free newsletter. Not only will you receive the monthly collection of CPSC recalls, but you’ll also get the latest baby trends, parenting tips, and giveaway alerts from your favorite moose M.D.!
Have fun and stay healthy,

quite a useful service this could be. about every week or so, yet another product recall seems to be going on.

It gets a little depressing when you scroll through the blog and see the number of recalls released over the past six months. We’ve seen four CPSC product recalls in the last eight days, and the Simplicity crib recall spans multiple brands (over 600,000 cribs). ~ Dr.MOZ

Take care

Hey Chris – I love the fact that it has international recall warnings, but they will have to come up with a better interface soon. The recall listings get redundant as the same product goes through the recall process in multiple countries over time. There also seems to be an issue with the product categories. The Phil and Teds stroller recall was tagged as “food”, but I suppose this could be a simple translation error. Overall, I’d say it’s worth keeping an eye on in the future! ~ Dr.MOZ

I have been trying to find a product recall service. This is the best site I have found. Thanks for the valuable service.

The prospect of crib death or dramatic entrapment of a small child is a really
scary thought for parents. There should be a safety check of products,
before they are mass marketed. Your recall page provides a great service to
the visitors.
