Hazard

Some of the legs on these chairs were mis-assembled by the installer and a piece of the chair could be bent out of shape. This can allow the chair to collapse during use, causing consumers to suffer injuries from falls.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the folding chairs immediately and return them to the place where purchased to receive a replacement chair or a refund.

Incidents & injuries

Adams Manufacturing has received two reports of folding chairs collapsing. No injuries have been reported.
