Plain-English summary

Yotrio International LLC is recalling approximately 15,000 Rockingham deluxe reclining lounge chairs. These chairs were sold at Menards stores from March 2007 through May 2007 for between $40 and $60. The chairs feature an orange mesh covering attached to a steel frame by woven cord and measure 40 inches long by 28 inches wide by 46 inches high. A hangtag on the chair reads "Backyard Creations" and "Deluxe Rockingham Reclining Chair."

The recall is due to faulty support brackets and/or weak frames that can cause the chairs to collapse. This defect poses a hazard of falling and severe laceration to consumers. Yotrio has received one report of a chair collapsing, causing a consumer to fall to the ground, but no injuries have been reported.

Consumers should stop using the recalled chairs immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund. For additional information, consumers can contact Yotrio at (800) 793-7055 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. PT Monday through Friday or visit www.yotrioint.com.
