Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Recalled product: Stage and Riser Caddies Recalled by Midwest Folding Products Due to Risk of Injury or Death Child died when stage stored on caddy fell on her

The hazard

The caddy's latches do not automatically close to secure the stages and risers when stored. Unsecured stages and risers can fall off the caddies and onto consumers.

What to do

Caddy owners and consumers should immediately stop using the recalled stage and riser caddies. Caddy owners should contact Midwest Folding Products to receive a free repair kit with new brackets that will allow latches to automatically return to the closed position on the caddies and new white warning and instruction labels.
