Recalled Roman shades and roll-up blinds from Whole Space Industries pose strangulation risk if children's necks get caught between cord and fabric. Stop using immediately and contact Window Covering Safety Council for repair.
Roman Shades - Strangulation can occur when a child places his/her neck between the exposed inner cord and the fabric on the backside of the blind or when a child pulls the cord out and wraps it around his/her neck. Roll-up Blinds - Strangulation can occur if the lifting loops slide off the side of the blind and a child's neck becomes entangled on the free-standing loop or if a child places his/her neck between the lifting loop and the roll-up blind material.
Whole Space Industries recalled Innovations and At Home with Meijer Roman shades and roll-up blinds due to strangulation risk for children. The hazard occurs when a child's neck gets caught between the cord and fabric or the lifting loop and blind material. This is serious enough to require immediate stop use.
