I bought a hummingbird feeder from Amazon. It was a handmade glass ball hummingbird feeder. It came with no directions and a metal hook to be inserted into a glass loop at the top of the hummingbird feeder. As I was putting the hook through the hummingbird feeder the loop snapped off and severed my wrist nicking and artery. I feel these birdfeeders are unsafe and should not be on the market. I want to go into the hospital and received several stitches over this accident

I spy plastic bird feeder refracted the sunlight and caught my yard/ house on fire.

We purchased a Seed loop manufactured by Songbird Essentials PO Box 355 Mexico Mo 65265 that arrived earlier this week. It is folded in a little bag into two folds and is spring loaded to expand to a 16" round bird feeding platform. As my wife took it out of the little bag the feeder sprang out of its folded position and flew out of her hand, hitting in the eye. She was lucky that it did not blind her! The instruction sheet in the little box it came in says in a lower page paragraph "The seed hoop may spring open when removed from the storage bag". This is not something a person would read prior to getting the platform out of its bag. The company has not responded to my email sent on Tues, June 7th. Trust me, the packaging must be dangerous otherwise why the warning on the instruction sheet. My wife will attest that it is a booby trap!

The consumer stated that she saw this product advertised on tv. She is concerned for the safety of children because her father became Ill from the bacteria from the bird dropping. The consumer stated that he had a bird feeder on his window ledge on the outside of his home. Who manufactures this product? Have they taken Illness from Bacteria in bird droppings into account for safety? My father almost died and would have died in his sleep if we had not been with him that evening. The bacteria from bird droppings on his window ledge were we had fixed a feeder close so that he could watch the birds, had caused a membrane of bacteria to grow across his trachea. That cut off his oxygen supply and he went to sleep. Only when the ER Doctor put an airway down into his lungs did we find out what was wrong. He woke up at once as oxygen again entered his lungs. Again I request you to stop sell of this bird house and feeder for up close use for health safety of the young and elderly. One Life is too many to lose to a silent killer!!! I am a very concerned person who lived a night of anguish from a personal use of such an item. A beloved father and grandfather almost died and his first born grandson thought He had killed his beloved grandfather. What a relief when suddenly life returned!! but had we not been with him at that moment the out come would had caused pain for the grandson for ever. Thank You for your consideration [REDACTED]

I am a retired engineer and respectfully offer my concern regarding product safety. Has CPSC reviewed the product called metal landscape edging (usually a green color, 8' segments) regarding safety? The product is sold at Lowe's and Home Depot and other landscaping companies. It is used by home owners and landscapers. The product is a potential safety hazard with reported injuries to people and animals. Please refer to a medical paper "Metal lawn edging and garden edging: The hidden knife?" by [REDACTED], MD and [REDACTED], MD in Pediatric Medical Care Vol. 17, No. 1, 2001. The metal edging can disengage at its connections, typically has a projection higher than grade level, has sharp edges and corners, has a high potential as a trip point in residential and commercial settings, especially at entrance walkways, has caused serious injuries. I can provide a copy of the referenced medical paper if requested. Other information may be available in the open literature. The desired outcome of your review of this product: Designated as a safety hazard, removal of the product from the market.
