Recall Information Record – Reclia Consumer Safety Database
1. Recall Summary
On June 20, 2024, Cinmar LLC, of West Chester, Ohio, announced a recall of approximately 70,000 Frontgate Resort Collection Newport Aluminum and Teak Chaise Lounge Chairs. The recall was initiated due to a finger crushing and amputation hazard associated with the adjustable backrest mechanism. The recall notice was published by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) under Recall Number 24273.
2. Affected Products
The recall includes two specific product lines:
– Frontgate Resort Collection Newport Aluminum Chaises (SKU 67333), sold in sets of two. Available in five colors: architectural bronze, champagne silver, cobalt, matte black, and matte white.
– Frontgate Resort Collection Newport Teak Chaises (SKU 166218), sold in sets of two. Available in two finishes: weathered and natural.
The chaises are reclining outdoor lounge chairs measuring approximately 51 inches long and 31 inches wide. They feature a powder-coated aluminum or teak frame, a chaise-style seat, and a mesh backrest. The backrest is adjustable and reclines to four positions, from upright to fully reclined. The word “FRONTGATE” is printed in black lettering on a silver badge located at the back of the chair.
The chairs were sold at Frontgate stores in Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, and Texas, as well as online at Frontgate.com and through Frontgate catalogues. They were sold from February 2014 through December 2023, with prices ranging from $600 to $1,400. The products were manufactured in China.
3. Hazard Information
The hazard involves the adjustable backrest mechanism. When a consumer adjusts the backrest while seated, the backrest can unexpectedly descend with force. This movement can entrap fingers between the backrest and the chair frame, creating a risk of finger crushing and amputation.
As of the recall date, Cinmar has received three reports of incidents involving consumers’ fingers becoming entrapped. These incidents resulted in two partial finger amputation injuries and one finger-crushing injury that required surgery.
4. Consumer Action Required
Consumers are instructed to immediately stop using the recalled chaise lounge chairs. To initiate the remedy process, consumers must contact Cinmar and submit a photograph of their chaise. After the photo is submitted, Cinmar will provide a free repair kit, which includes a new backrest support bar and assembly instructions.
5. Official Remedy
The official remedy is a free repair. Consumers will receive a repair kit containing a new backrest support bar and instructions for installation. No other remedy options, such as refund or replacement, are specified in the recall notice.
6. Contact Information
Consumers may contact Cinmar toll-free at 888-298-4651. The phone line is available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET, and Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET.
