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 structural defect posing a fall hazard to consumers, which fits the rubric criterion for 'risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.'

Plain-English summary

Dimension Industries is recalling approximately 18,000 Sling Fabric Café Sets sold exclusively at Costco Wholesale stores nationwide from December 2013 through May 2014. The three-piece sets include two aluminum swivel chairs with medium brown stretched fabric seats and backs, and a rectangular table with a porcelain tile tabletop. The chairs are manufactured by Foshan Shunde Shian Furniture Co Ltd. of China and distributed by Dimension Industries Company Ltd. of Taiwan.

The recall is due to a fall hazard. The chairs can break because a metal washer plate is missing from the underside, which can cause the chair to collapse. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled chairs. They can contact Dimension Industries at (800) 598-6532 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit www.costco.com and navigate to "Customer Service" and then "Recalls" to receive a free repair kit or a full refund.
