Folding Lounge Chairs Recalled by 4Seasons Due to Fall Hazard; Sold exclusively at Ross Stores

Hazard

The chair can tip or recline too quickly, posing a fall hazard.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the chairs and should destroy them by carefully cutting out a 5-inch by 5-inch piece of the fabric on the seat of the chair, rendering the chairs unusable, and removing the manufacturer's tag from the back of the chair. 4Seasons will provide a full refund to all consumers who present the cut-out fabric and tag.
