What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (fall hazard) where injuries have been reported, but no deaths or serious injuries are explicitly stated, fitting the 'High' severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Ramart LLC is recalling green, apple-shaped and brown, teardrop-shaped swing chairs sold exclusively at HomeGoods stores nationwide from March 2015 through May 2015. The chairs hang from a chain connected to a metal stand with a circle-shaped base and are made from plastic rattan with red cushions. About 250 units were sold for about $400 each.

The swing chairs can tip over, posing a fall hazard to consumers. HomeGoods has received 11 reports of the chairs tipping over with consumers in them, including four reports of injuries to adults and a baby.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled swing chairs and return them to a HomeGoods store for a full refund.
