Pier 1 Imports Recalls TV Stands for Tipping Hazard
What was recalled
The Ming TV Stand, SKU 2065368, is a brown wooden cabinet that sits directly on the floor and measures 35½ inches wide, 17¾ inches deep and 23½ inches high. The TV stand contains an open storage space between its top shelf and its single bottom drawer.
Hazard
If a consumer leans on the stand's drawer when open, the unit can tilt forward and cause a television on top to slide off, posing a risk of injury or death.
Injuries
Pier 1 has not received any reports of injuries in the United States. Though, Pier 1 has received a report of a death of a young child in Canada, which occurred when a television fell off the TV stand.
Where it was sold
- The stands were sold at Pier 1 stores nationwide and on-line through Pier 1's Web site from August 2005 through February 2006 for about $250.
