Spin Swivel Chairs Recalled Due to Fall Hazard

Spin Swivel Chairs sold online at article.com from July 2021 through June 2023 are being recalled because the swivel chair's base can break, posing a fall hazard. No injuries have been reported.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: Although 190 reports of base breakage were received, the source text explicitly states no injuries have been reported. The hazard is a potential fall risk, but with no documented harm, this meets the threshold for a precautionary recall at Moderate severity.
