Plain-English summary

Colleen Karis Designs LLC is recalling approximately 380 All-Star Basketball Chair and Ottoman Sets. The recall was initiated because the surface paints on the lettering on both sides of the basketball chair could contain excessive levels of lead, which is a violation of the federal lead paint standard.

The recalled vinyl chair is round, orange/brown in color, and measures about 20 inches in diameter. "All-Star" is printed on both sides in black, and "Colleen Karis Designs" is printed on a tag on the bottom of the chair. The matching ottoman is orange/brown with a black stripe. These sets were sold at HomeGoods stores nationwide from February 2009 through April 2010 for about $50.

No injuries have been reported. Consumers should immediately take the chair and ottoman away from children and return the set to Colleen Karis Designs for a full refund.
