Two Recalls for the Furniture Industry, Bed Frames and Bookcases

There are two separate recalls that the Consumer Product Safety Commission have brought to the attention of the public for safety purposes. These two recalls are industry-related, and therefore, relevant to pass along.

The first recall involves certain models of Zinus SmartBase Euro Slats metal mattress platform bed frames. The recalled bedframes have a black metal frame and measure 14 inches high and were sold in twin, full, queen and king sizes.

The bedframe assembly kit did not include reinforcing brackets for installation on the corners of the frame, which could lead to the frame collapsing, posing an injury hazard.

The model codes OLB-MESB-T, OLB-MESB-F, OLB-MESB-Q and OLB-MESB-K can be found on purchase invoice or box; the last letter in each model code indicates the size. 

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled metal bed frames and contact Zinus to obtain a free repair kit consisting of reinforcing brackets to be installed on the corners of the base, an appropriate tool and hardware, and both printed and video instructions (available at www.zinus.com/requestkit).  

The firm has received 14 reports of the bed frame collapsing including one report of an unspecified injury.

About 30,400 frames were sold online at Amazon, Wayfair, Wal-Mart, Target, Overstock and The Home Depot from May 2022 through November 2022 for between $74 and $200.

The second recall involves Aderes bookcases sold at Home Goods/Marshall’s or TJ Maxx.  The bell-shaped bookcases have a natural finish, measure 44” x 18” x 86” and have two glass cabinet doors and six drawers.

The bookcase sits on top of four legs that are affixed to two boards that are screwed into the bottom of the bookcase with eight screws on each side. The bookcases were sold with a furniture tip restraint kit. 

The bookcase was sold as a display cabinet and one of the following style numbers is printed on a hangtag attached to the product: 081774, 098627, and 094831.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bookcases and contact TJX for either a full refund or a refund in the form of store gift card and for instructions on how to receive a free pick-up of the bookcase. TJX is contacting known purchasers directly.

Consumers can call HomeGoods toll-free at 888-520-1892 from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. CT Monday through Friday or online at https://www.recallrtr.com/bookcases or www.homegoods.com and click on “Product Recalls” at the top of the page for more information.

TJX has received two reports of bookcases that were unstable and began to tip forward. No injuries have been reported.

HomeGoods and HomeGoods/Marshalls or T.J. Maxx combination stores nationwide from October 2021 through March 2022 for about $800.
