About ConsumerSun

Last updated: October 26, 2026

ConsumerSun is a free recall and safety watch. It helps you check products you already own against official recall records, learn what to do if something is recalled, and get an alert when a new recall affects a product on your watchlist.

ConsumerSun does not sell products. It does not publish supplement content or product reviews.

Who owns ConsumerSun

ConsumerSun is owned and operated by Cloudalien Technologies LLC.

ConsumerSun does not feature or link to products from brands its owner sells. Ownership does not give any product a better position, a softer description, or a place in our coverage.

What ConsumerSun covers

ConsumerSun compiles recall records from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). For meat, poultry, and eggs, we point readers to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA FSIS).

Every recall links to the official agency notice. Our main services are:

• Recall checking. Search products, brands, models, and other identifying details against recent official recall records.
• The weekly Recall Index. Every Monday, ConsumerSun publishes the prior complete week in numbers: new recalls by agency, serious Class I recalls, reported units, and the largest recalls and clusters.
• Recall alerts. You can receive free email alerts with a first name and email address. No account is needed to search the site.
• My Stuff. You can save products you own to a watchlist so they can be checked against new recalls.
• The open dataset. The recall dataset is published at https://consumersun.com/data/recalls.json, with an OpenAPI description at https://consumersun.com/data/openapi.json. It is free for journalists, researchers, and developers.
• Plain-English guides. Our guides explain how to check a product, read a recall notice, find a remedy, and complete the steps the agency or manufacturer describes.

Who writes it

Articles and guides are written and edited under Michael Gonzales, Founder & Editor. His author page is https://consumersun.com/author/michael-gonzales.

Michael is not a doctor, pharmacist, lawyer, or financial adviser, and ConsumerSun does not present recall information as professional advice. A recall listing is information from an official record. It is not a diagnosis, a treatment recommendation, or legal advice.

Never stop or change a medication because of something you read here. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist, and in an emergency call emergency services.

How we work

The agencies are our primary sources. We compile and normalize their official records, link readers to the source notice, and show the date on every page. We do not test products in a laboratory.

FDA company announcements may be captured the same day they are published, before the matching enforcement record is available. When the enforcement record arrives, the two records are reconciled. If we make an error, we correct it openly and note the change.

Our standards are described in the Editorial Policy and Our Review Process pages.

How the site is funded

ConsumerSun is funded by Cloudalien Technologies LLC and by the affiliate programs described here.

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Amazon replacement links appear below the remedy on some recall pages.

ConsumerSun participates in CJ (CJ Affiliate) and earns a fee when a reader requests a home warranty quote through the Choice Home Warranty module shown on some home and appliance recall pages. It is a lead program, paid per verified quote request.

No brand pays to be covered, ranked, included, or left out, and commissions never decide coverage. ConsumerSun does not feature or link to products from brands its owner sells.

Medication and drug recall pages carry no affiliate links or commerce modules at all.

The full disclosure is on the Disclaimer and Advertising Disclosure page.

Corrections and contact

Agency records, remedies, product details, and availability can change. Every page carries a date, and the official agency notice controls if it differs from our summary.

If you find an error, email [email protected]. We will review it, fix confirmed errors, and note the correction.
