CPSC, The Standard Mattress Co. Announce Futon Recall

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

The hazard

Some of these futons may fail cigarette ignition resistance tests, in violation of the federal Flammable Fabrics Act, because the boric acid flame retardant inside the futons may not have been evenly disbursed. This could result in burn injuries, should one of these futons catch fire.

What to do

Consumers who purchased one of these futons during this period should immediately call The Standard Mattress Co. to obtain a free replacement futon. Consumers should not return the futons to the stores where they purchased them. Replacements are available only by calling the company.
