Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft Stores Recall SmartSpace Chairs Due to Fall Hazard
Fall
The hazard
The chairs were sold without a warning label instructing consumers to lock the chair's legs before sitting. This poses a fall hazard to consumers.
Incidents reported: Jo-Ann has received five reports of chairs collapsing when the legs were not locked. No injuries have been reported.
What to do now
Consumers should immediately stop using the chair until a warning label, instructing consumers to engage the legs in the locked position before use, has been obtained from Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores.
Contact: For additional information, contact Jo-Ann Stores at (888) 739-4120 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or send an email to guest.services@joann.com
