As I recall...

If the sheer number of recent recalls has surprised you, it's probably because you're not reading this site. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission lists current recalls and safety standards, and also has a huge number of safety-related publications that will scare you half to death if you read them all in one sitting, but are otherwise quite useful.

My favorite feature, however, is the RSS feeds. Get your recall information delivered straight to your RSS reader every day, so you'll always be aware of the latest recalls. For what it's worth, I've subscribed to the RSS feed for a couple of years now and I've only seen one product that I actually own be recalled. But you just never know.
