09092 · Recalled 2009-01-13 · CPSC page
Description
This recall involves the Milan Vanity Stool Model GBS57A. The stools are rectangular benches sitting about 18 inches off the ground, with fabric-covered seat cushions and metal frames. UPC Code 0-50276-85472-2 is printed on the identification tag on the underside of the seat cushion. Only stools using four screws to hold the stool legs to a foot ring are impacted by this recall.
Hazards
The recalled stools can become unstable due to loose screws, which can cause the stool legs to separate or break, posing a fall hazard to consumers.
Reported injuries
Cheyenne has received nine reports of incidents, including seven resulting in minor injuries from the stool legs separating or breaking.
Remedy
Consumers should immediately check the screws on their stools and if the screws are stripped or cannot be tightened, or if a stool leg has broken, consumers should stop using it and contact Cheyenne Industries for a free repair kit. Consumers should not return the stools to the store where purchased.
