What this means for you

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. For more information, consumers can contact HomeGoods at (800) 888-0776 between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit www.homegoods.com and click on Product Info/Recalls at the bottom of the page.
