3 More National Recalls Reinforce Concerns Over Chinese-Made Products

Due to the geopolitical state of the world these days, recalls on products made in China have taken on more urgency, as opposed to years ago.

   Three more Consumer Product Safety Commission recalls

For decades Americans became used to sometimes having products they purchased made in China not exactly last as long as expected.  Quality control issues and cheap construction were offset by price.

However, over the last 5-10 years, the recalls have increased on these overseas products that often present safety hazards, whether its lead paint, or serious safety shortfalls.

According to the Better Business Bureau, the new Chinese retail Giant Temu has had just over 2,100 formal complaints filed over issues with their products. While that may not seem like a lot compared to their sales, consider that many people who purchase from a known overseas vendor rarely file a complaint over quality, price or even safety issues.

Now the Consumer Product Safety Commission this week has issued 3 more recalls for Chinese-made products. They include:

 SIORO Children's Robes, about 5,000, and another 950 were recalled in 2021. The robes violate US quality and fire safety standards. They were sold on Amazon. To obtain refund information, click here.
