What happened

Brumlow Mills has recalled "Zen design" polypropylene rugs in rust and sage colors that were sold exclusively at J.C. Penney between January 2010 and March 2010. Large rugs in sizes 5'x8', 6' square, 22"x108", and 8'x10" fail to meet federal flammability standards and could ignite, creating a fire and burn hazard. Small rugs in sizes 2'x3'3", 2'6"x3'10", 3'4"x5", and 22"x60" lack the required federal warning label stating the rugs are flammable and should not be used near sources of ignition.

Consumers who own recalled large rugs should immediately stop using them and contact Brumlow Mills to obtain a replacement or refund. Those with small rugs should contact Brumlow Mills to obtain a new label with the required warning information. The company is contacting all known users directly.
