The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of 

injury or death from thousands of types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. The CPSC is

committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical, or mechanical

hazard. The CPSC's work to ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette

lighters, and household chemicals - contributed significantly to the decline in the rate of deaths and injuries

associated with consumer products over the past 30 years.

To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury, call CPSC's Hotline at (800) 638-2772 or CPSC's

teletypewriter at (301) 595-7054. To join a CPSC e-mail subscription list, please go to https://www.cpsc.gov

/cpsclist.aspx. Consumers can obtain recall and general safety information by logging on to CPSC's Web site at
