We have all heard about recalls of defective products, but unfortunately some defective products are not taken off the market until they have already done their damage. The types of injuries caused by defective products varies, but the injuries sustained can be extremely serious. For example, defective electrical equipment, such as space heaters and hair dryers can cause fires which result in serious burn injuries or death. Defective power equipment, such as lawnmowers, snow blowers, power saws and other cutting tools can result in amputations and defective strollers and playpens can result in injuries to children.
