08166 · Recalled 2008-01-17 · CPSC page
Description
The self-assembled, wooden play stove is painted pink with six white knobs and a timer. The dimensions of the stove when assembled are 11 1/2" W x 13 3/4" D x 32 7/8" H.
Hazards
A metal bracket connecting the door to the stove can cause a tip-over when the door is opened. This poses a risk of injury to young children.
Reported injuries
Sears has received one report of the product tipping over, resulting in bruises to a child.
Remedy
Consumers should immediately remove and discard the bracket that connects the door to the stove to eliminate the hazard. Consumers may obtain updated assembly instructions by contacting Transform for Kenmore brand products. In some products, the updated assembly instructions are already included and replacement instructions are not required.
