Pool Toys Recalled by Wild Planet Toys Due to Risk of Impalement Injury to Children
Wild Planet has received one report of an impalement injury to an 8-year-old girl who landed seat first onto a Jet Streamer left in a swimming pool and received a puncture wound.
When partially filled with water, the pool toy can stand upright on the pool floor with the rigid narrow end pointed upward, posing an impalement risk.
The Jet Streamers™ Outdoor Antics! Pump-Action Water Blasters are straight squirt guns for the pool. The Jet Streamers measure 9-inches long with a bulbous water reservoir at one end and a rigid tapering handle containing a small water intake hole at the other end. The tapering handle is gray while the bulbous water reservoir varies in colors of white/green, blue/yellow and orange/silver.
The extent of current asbestos product labeling is limited
Except for products which are sold unwrapped, such as millboard; and asbestos-cement sheet, all products are labeled with the name of the manufacturer or distributor. Only asbestos paper and furnace cement are labeled as containing asbestos. Non-asbestos substitutes for all asbestos products are widely available to the public for household uses.

News about product liability cases in Florida and nationwide:
Definition:
Manufacturers not only have a duty to warn, but they may also have to recall a defective product that is already on store shelves. Federal law makes it mandatory to recall certain products, like cars and toys.
Inadequate Warning
Definition:
Sometimes, a manufacturer doesn’t warn the user of a product’s hazards. Simply putting a warning in a little instruction book or label might not be enough. The warning must adequately inform the user of the hazards.
Warranties
Definition:
Fitness and merchantability The two most important warranties created by U.C.C. Article 2 are the warranty of merchantability (2-314) and the warranty of fitness for a particular purpose (2-315). The warranty of merchantability is a promise that the goods are fit for the ordinary purpose for which goods of that type are used.
