Question by Riley: Chinese product recall……what products exactly are affected?

Is it just fisher price affected by this chinese product recall or is it a whole range of baby items?
decided to see what stuff I have for my new baby that is made in China.
One item was a painted plastic dinnerware set. The company it is made by is babycie.com, a company based in California.
So I sent them a very polite email asking if they knew for sure that this product was safe and he sent me back an email saying ‘of course it is safe!’
So am I supposed to just take his word for it?
The silly man obviously got very offended that I was asking but honestly does he think I am going to let my child eat off a plate that has paint with lead in it.
So I just emailed him back and asked how he could be so sure and who was his chinese vendor. I suggested that if he was unable to confirm for sure that his products were safe then I would enlist the help of channel 7 news to investigate instead!
does anyone know if its just fisher price affected or where I could get that info. thanx

I think you’re wise to be concerned. I certainly wouldn’t trust him. I advise you to consider removing all Chinese made toys and other products from your home, especially any item that your child uses regularly. I hate to sound jingoistic, but these people clearly do not have the same standards for quality control that we expect in America. I am appalled a the rash of recalls we’ve seen recently involving products made in China.

Here is a photo list of the Fisher-Price toys the company has recalled in cooperation with the United States Consumer Products Safety Commission:

Here is the official notice from the CPSC:

The CPSC is also the best place to go for information about other recalls, including toys, household products and electronics.

Here is another toy that has been recalled recently. Can you guess where it was manufactured? Right, China! Jeepers!
