Home Depot Recalls Patio Umbrellas

Risk of Impact Injury Prompts Recall

About 60 Offset Patio Umbrellas are being recalled by The Home Depot because the umbrellas and their poles could tip over and strike consumers if the umbrella's collar or sleeve is not removed prior to closing the umbrella, posing a risk of impact injury to consumers.

To date, Home Depot has not received any reports of injury, but has received 1 report of a recalled patio umbrella tipping over and breaking.

The patio umbrellas are beige with a brown offset pole. They stand 11 feet tall. The base is a brown cross about 18 inches long.

The umbrellas were sold nationwide from January 2009 through February 2009 for about $250.
