Chair recall questions

How many chairs & stools have been recalled?

As of October 31, 2026, CPSC has published 129 recall notices for chairs & stools since 1987, covering at least 12 million units. The most recent is “HARPPA Recalls Nordi Toddler Tower Stools Due to Risk of Serious Injury and Death from Entrapment and Fall Hazards” (CPSC 26-651), announced July 30, 2026.

Are there any chair recalls in 2026?

Yes. As of October 31, 2026, CPSC has published 4 recall notices for chairs & stools in 2026, the most recent on July 30, 2026 (CPSC 26-651).

What is the largest chair recall?

“CPSC, Summit Marketing International LLC Announce Recall to Repair Children's Folding Chairs” (CPSC 05-181), announced May 24, 2005: about 2 million units.

Which brands have recalled chairs & stools?

Brands named most often: TJX (5), Walmart (4), Office Depot (3), Pier 1 Imports (3), Staples (3), Staples the Office Superstore (3), Cost Plus (2) and Cost Plus Management Services (2), plus 108 more brands. Brand-name products are often made by another firm, so one recall can span several brands.

How do I check if my chair is recalled?

Find the model number on the product's rating label, then type it into the model-number lookup on this page. A match means the number appears in an official CPSC notice; open that notice to confirm any date codes or serial ranges it lists. No match is not proof that a product is safe. 23 of the 129 notices here list model numbers. They also name serial numbers in 4 and date codes or manufacture dates in 20. The place they name most often is “on a label located on the underside of the seat”.

What should I do if my chair is recalled?

Follow the remedy in the official notice and contact the firm it names. Across chair recalls, the remedies offered most often are refund (41), repair (23) and replacement (15).
