Director's Chairs and Replacement Director's Chair Padded Seats
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
L.L. Bean is recalling certain director's chairs and replacement padded seats due to multiple structural failures that pose a fall hazard. The wooden dowels in the fabric seats can break or slide out, the fabric seat can tear away from the wooden frame, and the chair frame itself can crack at the backrest, armrests, or leg joints. These defects can cause a person sitting in the chair to fall, potentially resulting in injury.
The recalled director's chairs are folding chairs with natural wood frames and cotton duck fabric seats available in navy, red, green, and natural colors, measuring 34 inches high by 24 inches wide by 19 inches deep with an 18-inch seat height. The recalled models are XS78 and VU67 for the chairs and XS79 for the replacement padded seats, which can be identified by checking the label underneath the seat. Consumers should immediately stop using the affected chairs and replacement seats and contact L.L. Bean for a full refund or an L.L. Bean gift certificate.
