Granted, it probably is safe. But I always find it amazing when sellers shoot pictures of their items by placing them on the carpeted floor on their FACE and then on their rear side. Odd. Honestly, just set it on a frickin' counter!
I would also request finger prints of the kids to verify that they have not touched the equipment. Might as well as request hair samples from the pets.
