CPSC, Meco Corp. Announce Recall of Children's Folding Chairs
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
Children's fingers can become caught or entrapped in the hinge and slot areas of the chair, posing a pinch or cut hazard. Note: In 2004, Meco recalled red-colored children's folding chairs because paint on the chair contained excessive lead levels, posing a lead poisoning hazard to young children.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the chairs and contact Meco for instructions on receiving a refund.
