Product Seal

The EZ Rated ® Seal system delivers unbiased, professionally determined and presented consumer guidance on a products ease of setup and first use.
As the UL (Underwriter's Laboratories) seal was created to inform consumers that a product bearing the UL seal has been evaluated for safety, the EZ Rated seal communicates that a product has been evaluated for ease. Before the EZ Rated seal appears on a product, EZ Rated, Inc. will have determined that the product is:

-
Legibility and formats of the included materials.

The package labeling and illustrations--for completeness and accuracy.
