Chinese product recall……what products exactly are affected?
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!

Q&A: When will the US learn that Chinese manufacturers don’t care?
Question by lb06029: When will the US learn that Chinese manufacturers don’t care?
When will the US learn that Chinese manufactorers don’t care about us? This Courious George recall is just another example of what they think of the US consumer. Use cheap materials, who cares? As long as the toy is cheap, their happy… As for Mattell, the only way they will learn is to bring charges against those in charge of product safety & standards for endangering lives. I bet it would only need to happen once…

Concerning the Chinese products recall, could this be a plot to destroy the minds of children with lead?
Question by sbg0803: Concerning the Chinese products recall, could this be a plot to destroy the minds of children with lead?
The majority of these toy products are aimed toward infants to 3rd grade. Lead is a dangerous substance in cognitive development. Most young children have many of these toys and are therefore exposed. We all know that many of these toys wind up in their mouths.
It would be so easy to quietly slip any dangerous substance into these products and claim innocence when caught.
This could have possibly destroyed many children’s lives. This generation of children should grow up and become leaders. If their minds are not functioning to full capacity, how will they make good decisions?
Just a thought.

The Chinese Government and their industrial base has VERY LITTLE, to no quality control, do not know, nor care about any health concerns !!!!! ( I speak with some first hand knowledge, read my profile).
The fact that there are so many Chinese products, entering the USA, with out the usual health safety regards, is thanks to Wm. J. Clinton, and his trip to China, while he was President !!!!!!
Now that the import issue has set a precedent for establishing a “standard”, the only way I see for the stoppage of this activity, is for ALL AMERICANS TO REFUSE TO BUY CHINESE PRODUCTS !!!!!!
IF the American RETAILERS HAVE THE CHEAP Chinese PRODUCT/S ON THE SHELVES, FOR AN EXTENDED TIME, THE RETAILERS WILL CEASE TO ORDER, AND STOCK, THEIR PRODUCT/S !!!
Will the American buyer stop buying this, NO, NOT UNTIL THE MESSAGES HIT HOME i.e. THEIR OWN FAMILIES !!!!!!

Are you afraid of purchasing Chinese made products?
Question by billybobinbred: Are you afraid of purchasing Chinese made products?
So many recalls as of late. What can a consumer do? Being a capitalist, I believe in the power of the pocket book, but curious to know what others are doing to protect themselves from dangerous consumer products.

Q&A: Who should be blamed for the toys and other chinese product recall conundrum?
Question by voodoogirl_w: Who should be blamed for the toys and other chinese product recall conundrum?
Obviously Chinese manufactures will be blamed and punished for what had happened, and they should be. However, The US companies did make gazillion dollars because of those low-cost-high-profit cheap products. What happened to the product quality control before putting the product on the shelves? There are the Chinese government, US government, exporter, importer, the company itself, and the retail store between the Chinese manufactures and consumers.
