Unsafe goods and product recalls

Consumers should avoid buying potentially hazardous products like chargers (especially for electric bikes and scooters), electrical items, or cosmetics from untrusted sources or abroad.

Sometimes products have to be recalled by the manufacturer, usually for safety reasons.

The Electrical Safety First website has information about recalls of electrical goods. It also allows you to register electrical goods, so that you are told if they are withdrawn.

Up to date information about recalls, including goods in general and food, is available on the Chartered Trading Standards Institute product recalls webpage.
