For Your Safety - Recalled Product Roundup

Here are some recently recalled defective or dangerous products you may have in your home or at work:

King of Fans, Inc., recalled 75,000 Maxi-Heat Dream Tower heaters. Interior heater wiring can short-circuit and burn consumers.

Porter-Cable has voluntarily called back 70,000 Porter-Cable 890 Series Routers with motor coil insulation that can be worn away by vibration and shock users.

Country Home Products, Inc., has asked buyers to return 15,700 2005 Model NEUTON Cordless Electric Lawn Mowers. Even when the handlebar is released, the motor sometimes continues to run, causing the blade to spin, which can harm consumers.

Fisher-Price has recalled 614,000 Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Musical Learning Chairs. Children may become trapped between the chair seatback and side table, which poses a strangulation hazard.

Simplicity Inc. requests consumers return 104,000 Aspen 3 in 1 Cribs, sold under the Graco Trademark. Support screws can loosen, allowing mattresses to fall, posing a suffocation hazard to young children.

LTD Commodities and its subsidiary, The Lakeside Collection, have voluntarily recalled 34,600 Pilates Balls. Exercisers using the ball can be hurt by plastic clips or grommets that may loosen from rubber tubing on nylon webbing.
