CPSC, Summit Marketing International LLC Announce Recall to Repair Children's Folding Chairs

Reported: May 24, 2005 Initiated: May 24, 2005 #05181

Product Description

The recalled children's folding chairs are made of metal tubing with a padded seat. They were sold in red, blue, yellow and green colors either individually or as part of a set consisting of a table and two, four, or six chairs. Each chair is about 22 inches high, 10 inches wide, and about 11 inches deep. "MANUFACTURED BY ZHANGZHOU STEEL TUBE FURNITURE FACTORY" is written on a label underneath the seat of the chairs.

Reason for Recall

The chair's safety lock can fail, allowing the chair to collapse or fold unexpectedly. Children's fingers can become caught or entrapped in the hinge and slot areas of the chair, posing a pinch or cut hazard. This can cause severe lacerations and fingertip amputations to children's fingers.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the chairs immediately and discard or destroy them. The firm is out of business and a remedy is no longer available.
