Rockingham Folding Recliner Chairs

June 26, 2007
Bond Manufacturing Co. is recalling about 68,000 Rockingham Deluxe Lounge Chairs, also sold as Vanderwall Folding Recliner Chairs.

The chairs can collapse or fall backward due to faulty support brackets or weak frames, posing fall and severe laceration hazards to consumers.

Bond is aware of 13 incidents in which the recalled chairs fell backwards or collapsed. There have been eight reports of injuries. Four consumers reported injuries to their shoulder, back or neck, one consumer reported an injury to her head, two consumers reported hand injuries, and one consumer suffered a severe laceration to the tip of her finger when the chair collapsed.

The recalled recliner chairs have a mesh covering attached to the steel frame by a woven cord. The chairs were sold in the following colors: bronze, navy blue, spa blue, spa green, spa linen, orange, lime, teal and taupe. The recliners are about 40 inches long, 28 inches wide and 46 inches high.

The chairs were sold at hardware, variety and discount department stores nationwide from December 2006 through April 2007 for between $35 and $100.

Consumers should stop using the recalled chairs immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund.
