I'm interested to buy a humidifier called: Hunter Care-free warm mist humidifier. This specific product has been recalled due to potential fire hazard. There are 4 reports from consumers of minor property damage from water leaking to the electrical components causing fire. Accordingto the website below, the recall is for products sold at stores nationwide from September 2005 through February 2006.

it's 2007 now and I still see the product being sold at target.com, iallergy.com and several others. Does it mean that they have corrected the problem and is it safe to buy those products now? Or are these retailers trying to sell leftover products that still have the problem?
any input will be appreciated

*** correction: I mean the product not the brand. I'd like to buy this specific product that has been recalled before. So Is it safe to buy this product knowing that this product has been recalled before ? ***
