Chicology recalls French Antique Gold, Zen Moss, Tropic Ginger, and Kansas White roll-up blinds due to strangulation risk if a child's neck gets caught in the lifting loop.
Strangulations can occur if the lifting loop slides 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.
Chicology is recalling four specific roll-up blind models because a child's neck could get entangled in the lifting loop, causing strangulation. This is a serious hazard that requires immediate action to prevent injury.
The lifting loop can slide off the blind and become entangled around a child's neck, or a child could place their neck between the loop and the blind material. This can cause strangulation if the loop tightens around the neck.
Parents or caregivers of young children who own any of the recalled blind models are most at risk. Children under age 5 are particularly vulnerable due to their small size and tendency to explore blind mechanisms.
Check for roll-up blinds labeled French Antique Gold, Zen Moss, Tropic Ginger, or Kansas White. These models are made from natural fiber-paper, jute, and polyester and were sold in the U.S. between 2020 and 2:00 PM on June 1, 2023.
Immediately stop using the roll-up blinds to prevent any risk of strangulation.
