Pittsburgh-based Dick's Sporting Goods is recalling about 125,000 lounge chairs and recliners because they may collapse, creating a safety hazard to users, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said Wednesday.
The company has learned of 19 chairs and recliners collapsing, involving a total of 17 injuries.
The recall applies to the following products:
- Lazy Lounger chair, style #CEH00415.
- Recliner, style # CEH00320.
- Oversize recliner, style# CEH00414, CEH00345 and CEH00443.
The chairs, which were manufactured in China, were sold at Dick's Sporting Goods stores and on the store website from February 2006 to August 2007 for between $40 and $80 US each.
Consumers should stop using the chairs and recliners, and contact Dick's Sporting Goods for a repair kit.
