Reports of Injury Prompt Recall of Outdoor Folding Chairs

Washington, DC: About 7,000 folding wooden chairs imported by Fred Meyer of Oregon, are being recalled because the wooden frame of the chairs can break, posing a fall hazard to consumers. The Kroger Co. and White Tiger have received three reports of chairs breaking, resulting in minor injuries including back and shoulder pain, sprains and contusions.

This recall includes wooden folding chairs. The chairs were sold individually and as part of a three-piece set that included one table and two chairs. "HD Outdoor" is printed on the chair's packaging.

The chairs were sold at Kroger, Fred Meyer, Ralph's, Fry's, Smith's, Dillon's, Gerbes, City Market, and Baker's stores nationwide from February 2009 through December 2009 individually for about $50 and as part of the set that sold for about $130.
