TULSA, Okla. — Yard tools top the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's list of several recalled items this week.

Before doing yard work this weekend, check to see if you have a Black and Decker Craftsman 10-inch corded chainsaw.

They're being recalled because the chainsaw can start unexpectedly when the extension cord adapter is connected upside down.

If you have one, stop using it and contact Craftsman for a free repair kit. CLICK HERE for more information.

Another yard tool under recall is Fiskars 16-foot Pole Saw Pruners.

The telescoping pole can separate causing the saw blade causing the pruner head to fall which poses a laceration hazard.

Stop using and contact Fiskars Brands for instructions on how to destroy and dispose of product properly in exchange for a full refund. CLICK HERE for more information.

Burley is recalling some models of Dash XFM child bicycle seats due to a crash hazard.

The reclining plate that holds the child bicycle seat in place can detach which can make the seat unstable and cause the rider to lose control.

Stop using immediately and contact Burley for a replacement. CLICK HERE for more information

LG sourcing is recalling electric fireplaces because wiring connectors can overheat posing a fire hazard. These units were sold exclusively at Lowe's.

Stop using immediately, and contact LG sourcing for a free repair kit, and to schedule a free in-home repair. CLICK HERE for more information
