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 source reports 18 incidents of chair breakage or collapse with two reports of minor injuries. Although injuries have been reported, they are characterized as minor and the hazard involves structural collapse of a consumer product, placing this at the High level—above theoretical-hazard recalls but below recalls with significant injury reports.
