Recalled Appliances

recalled appliances

Massachusetts Home Inspections does not research product recalls or notices of any kind. My home inspection will not include the identification of, or research for, appliances and any other items installed in your prospective home that may have been be recalled or has a consumer safety alert issued on it. Any comments made in your report regarding well known recalls or notices are simply provided as a courtesy to you (my client) only.

If you are interested in receiving information regarding recalled household appliances, I highly recommend visiting the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission web site at http://www.cpsc.gov/en/Recalls. Consumer alerts and product recalls are added to this website almost daily.

CPSC web site is very easy to use. It has an on-line subscription service that enables you to receive instant email notifications of any recalls or product safety concerns. There are many subscription choices, including subscribing to recalls involving only selected products, e.g., infant/child products, sports and recreation products, outdoor products, household products, and specialty products. There are literally thousands of recalls and safety concerns that have been released since the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission began operating in 1973, and every one of them are listed. Not all recalls and safety concerns make the local headlines of your local newspaper or the news, so it's best to be subscribed to the USPSC.

Massachusetts Home Inspections recommends that you subscribe to all U.S. CPSC press releases, including recalls. This will alert you to all recalls and safety concerns of products that are on the market today.

Hi Dave,

I want to thank you for the home inspection you did for us at 144 Avis Ave. in Dracut MA. We did not get the house because the home owners did not want to split the cost of fixing that wall. I had gotten two estimates, one from a landscaper and one from a Mason. Both gave an estimate of $15,000.00, for which I am grateful for your inspection and pointing out the wall problem. It would of been an undue burden on us, not to mention I am also grateful about the radon testing also. I just got the results today and they came back at 7.5 and 8.4, so that would of been another expense. I do hope that when we find a new house that you will be able to do our home inspection. Your fee was a drop in the hat, to what it would of cost us to fix the wall and then the cost of venting the basement. My husband was also very impressed with your report and how well it was written. Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know what happened, and hopefully will be doing business with you again very soon.

Have a Good Day
Jackie Sliney
