How recall checking works

Automatic, passive, and free — no manual searching required.

01
Track your home items
Add your appliances, tools, electronics, and safety devices to Steadwell. You can scan a nameplate with your camera or enter details manually.
02
We check automatically
Every time you open Steadwell, your tracked items are cross-referenced against the CPSC recall database by brand, model, and product type.
03
Get alerted immediately
If a match is found, you see a recall alert at the top of your dashboard with the full recall details, affected models, and what to do next.
04
Take action
Each alert links directly to the CPSC recall notice with instructions for getting a repair, replacement, or refund from the manufacturer.

Most recalled products are never returned

The CPSC estimates that fewer than 30% of recalled products are ever repaired or returned. That means millions of potentially dangerous items remain in homes across the country — because their owners simply never found out.

Recalls are announced through press releases and government websites that most people never visit. Unless you happen to see a news story or get a direct mailer from the manufacturer, you have no way of knowing.

Steadwell changes that. The moment you track an item, it is permanently monitored. You will know.

Common questions

Everything you need to know about recall checking.

How does Steadwell check for recalls?
Steadwell sends the brand, product type, and model number of each item you track to the CPSC SaferProducts.gov database. If a recall matches, it appears as an alert on your dashboard.
What happens when a recall is found?
You see a recall alert at the top of your dashboard with the full recall details — what the hazard is, which models are affected, and a direct link to the CPSC notice with instructions for getting a remedy.
Do I need to check manually?
No. Steadwell checks automatically every time you open the app. You do not need to search the CPSC website or sign up for any separate alert service.
Is recall checking free?
Yes, completely free on all Steadwell plans including the free tier. There is no limit on how many items are checked.
What if my exact model isn't recalled but a similar one is?
Steadwell checks by brand and product category, so you may see alerts for related models within the same product line. We always link to the official CPSC notice so you can confirm whether your specific model is affected.
Can I report a product safety issue?
Yes — you can report unsafe products directly to the CPSC at SaferProducts.gov. Steadwell links to the reporting form from every recall alert.
