Atico International USA recently recalled 1.5 million children's folding chairs. The chair's safety lock can fail, causing the chair to collapse unexpectedly. This poses a pinch, severe laceration, or fingertip-amputation hazard. The chairs are made of metal tubing, have a padded seat, and come in red, blue, yellow, and green. They were sold separately and as part of a table and chairs set at hardware, discount department, toy, grocery, and drug stores nationwide. The individual chairs cost around $10 and the complete set cost $30.
For a full refund, consumers should contact Atico at 877-546-4835 from 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. ET, Monday through Friday, or visit www.aticousa.com
