There have been several consumer recalls over the past couple of days that may affect Deal Seeking Mom readers. Please refer to the links included in each section for more details about the specific recalls:

Aquarium Heaters

Marineland Stealth and Stealth Pro Aquarium Heaters are being recalled by United Pet Group, of Cincinnati, Ohio because a wiring problem can cause the aquarium heaters to overheat or break during normal use, damaging the aquarium and posing fire and laceration hazards to consumers. Overheating can cause the heater to shatter or the aquarium glass to break. For a complete list of recalled model numbers and pictures, go here. The affected heaters were sold at pet stores nationwide and on various websites from January 2004 through February 2011 for between $20 and $300.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled aquarium heaters and contact United Pet Group for a free replacement aquarium heater or a full refund. For additional information, contact United Pet Group at (800) 338-4896 between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm’s website.

Children’s Scooters

Kiddieland Toys Limited, of Scituate, Mass. has announced a voluntary recall of Lights and Sounds Children’s Scooters because a child’s finger can get caught in the hinge mechanism between the steering column and the platform, posing a laceration hazard. This recall involves three models of Kiddieland “Lights and Sounds” three-wheeled scooters including a red Spiderman, a blue Thomas & Friends and a pink girl’s scooter. The scooters have buttons on the handle that play music and sounds. “Kiddieland” is molded on the back of the steering mechanism. Spiderman or Thomas & Friends are found on the steering mechanism and platform. The girl’s model has butterflies on the platform. The affected scooters were sold at Toys R Us and JCPenney from January 2009 through February 2011 for about $40.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled scooters away from children and contact Kiddieland for a free repair kit. For additional information, contact Kiddieland toll-free at (800) 430-5307 or visit the firm’s website.

Synovate Research Panel Open Again (Paid Surveys + Product Tests)

April 22, 2011 by Tara Kuczykowski 5 Comments

Just wanted to let you know that Synovate Global Opinion Research is taking applications again right now! Along with Pinecone Research, it’s one of the most frequently recommended paid survey panels by Deal Seeking Mom readers.

The main difference between Pinecone and Synovate is that you will not earn cash for every survey. With Synovate, you’ll earn points that you can redeem for cash once you reach a specified threshold. However, you will still have opportunities for product testing much like Pinecone.

Be sure to check out more legitimate paid survey sites here!
