Mobile Access to HealthyStuff.org

FLASH WIDGET | IPHONE/MOBILE DEVICES | SMS/TEXTING

HealthyStuff.org provides many other ways to access our list of products, including a Flash Widget you can embed in your own web site or Facebook profile, and an SMS text version that lets you find safe products from your cell phone by SMS text message. For those with Internet-capable phones such as Blackberries or iPhones, HealthyStuff.org provides a dedicated mobile version as well.

Using the Widget

Select your category from the drop-down list and enter your search terms in the text box. You may search on product name, UPC, brand, and level of concern. NONE, LOW, MED, and HIGH are reserved words and if added to the search will filter the results based on level of concern.

Query results are limited to 30 products. If your query returns more than 30 products we suggest narrowing your search. The query results show the product name, the level of concern, and an icon of the level of concern (green for none or low, yellow for medium, and red for high). If the product name is too long to fit in the Widget, you can move your mouse over the product to find out the entire name. For complete test results click on the listed product to go to its details page on HealthyStuff.org.

Sample Queries

Select the Toys category. You can search for products by name (such as Barbie, Hannah, or Football), a brand name (such as Fisher-Price, Hasbro or Maggie), a product UPC code (a number, like 678634798268), or the overall level of detection in a product (High, Medium, Low, or None). These searches can be combined, e.g. (Barbie Medium or Hasbro Low).

Requirements

In order to run the Widget, you must have Adobe Flash Player version 9 or higher installed. Adobe Flash Player may be downloaded here. The Widget also requires a network connection in order to function.

Mobile Device Optimized Site

Direct your iPhone, Blackberry, or other web browser-enabled mobile device to our mobile site by punching in mobile.healthystuff.org in your phone's web browser (you can also visit from your computer if you'd like to check it out first). Visitors will be able to access summary information for all products tested by the HealthyStuff.org team, including overall product ratings. As with the HealthyStuff site (www.HealthyStuff.org), you will be able to access listings by make or industry classification, in addition to a “best/worst” list of products grouped by class. Some site features, including complete chemical results and results for individual components will only be available via the desktop version at this time. Individual component results, including complete test results, will not be available from the mobile site.

Check for Lead Using SMS Texting

Check for the presence of lead in toys and other products using the HealthyStuff.org Lead-Check SMS Texting Service!

How to Use

Text a HealthyStuff.org keyword (for list of keywords, see table below), followed by the name and/or brand of a product that you wish to find to the number 30644. You can also refine your search by providing the year the product was made (for example “toys 2009 barbie”). Lead check may not be available for some product types at this time.

The above picture shows an example of how to use the SMS Lead Check texting service from HealthyStuff.org. For more examples and for a complete list of keywords, see the table below. Keywords are available in both Spanish and English.

Keyword	En Español	HealthyStuff Department	Example(s)
cars	autos	Cars	cars ford focus
clothes	ropa	Apparel & Accessories	clothes red wallet
pets	mascotas	Pets	pets tennis balls
kids	ninos	Children’s Products	kids britax
toys	juguetes	Toys	toys fisher-price low

Palabra Clave	In English	Departamento de HealthyStuff	Ejemplo(s)
autos	cars	Automóviles	autos ford focus
ropa	clothes	Ropa y Acesorios	ropa roja cartera
mascotas	pets	Mascotas	mascotas tenis pelotas
ninos	kids	Productos para Niños	ninos britax
juguetes	toys	Juguetes	juguetes fisher-price

When you send your text message, you may receive up to two pages of results (plus a disclaimer if it is your first time using the service). If your search finds too many products to fit on two pages, you will receive a message saying to refine your search. For example, a short text of:

toys baby

might reply:

Too many results. Please refine search using year, product and/or brand.

but a more narrow search, like:

toys baby einstein blocks

might generate a response of:

LEVEL OF LEAD DETECTED: 09 Disney Baby Einstein Stack and Discover Blocks NONE (0 PPM)
