Kate and Laurel Mirrors Recalled for Detachment and Laceration Hazard

Uniek is recalling Kate and Laurel Astora and Valenti mirrors because the mirror glass can detach from the frame and fall, posing a laceration hazard. No injuries have been reported.

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: This is a risk-of-harm product where a laceration hazard exists and the mirror can fall and break, but no injuries have been reported to date. The source explicitly states "No injuries have been reported," which per the rubric limits the score to at most 3 for a theoretical hazard.

Plain-English summary

This recall involves Kate and Laurel-branded Astora Capsule and Valenti Short Wood Arch mirrors imported by Uniek Inc. of Waunakee, Wisconsin. The oval-shaped Astora mirrors measure approximately 16 inches high and 36 inches wide with a wooden frame and bottom shelf in walnut or natural finishes. The arch-shaped Valenti mirrors measure approximately 24 inches high and 32 inches wide in walnut finish.
