This includes obtaining and sighting safety and performance test reports, conducting final random inspections and obtaining certificates of approval from relevant certification authorities. They confirm that both of these products have been tested against, and have met the required safety standards relevant for the sale of these products in Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the safety and performance testing and certification requirements, as an over and above safety precaution, Bunnings conducts final random inspections against the standards in conjunction with suppliers. This is the first time Bunnings has been made aware of issues relating to these products. Should customers have any concerns about the product, Bunnings encourages them to reach out to their local store or to Bunnings Customer Feedback teams. CHOICE stands by its results.
