LOUISVILLE, Ky – Wood furniture resource Hillsdale Furniture has recalled about 10,570 of its Jennings counter and barstools due to a potential fall hazard.
While no injuries have been reported, the company has received 21 reports of the seats breaking off from the base or having loose welding, posing a fall hazard.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has suggested consumers immediately stop using the recalled items and contact Hillsdale for a free repair kit.
The recall involves the Jennings counter and barstools with date codes between August 2020 and January 2021. These codes are found on the bottom of the seat. The chairs, which were sold in counter and bar heights, have a tan wooden seat, a wooden back and a metal base.
They were made in Vietnam and imported by Hillsdale Furniture LLC of Louisville, Ky. They were sold at Raymour & Flanigan, Nebraska Furniture Mart, Mathis Brothers Furniture and other furniture stores nationwide from October 2020 through January 2021 for about $200.
For more information, consumers can contact Hillsdale Furniture at (800) 368-0999 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time Monday-Friday or via email at recall@hillsdalefurniture.com. Information also is available online under the product recalls tab at the bottom of the page.

I'm Tom Russell and have worked at Furniture/Today since August 2003. Since then, I have covered the international side of the business from a logistics and sourcing standpoint. Since then, I also have visited several furniture trade shows and manufacturing plants in Asia, which has helped me gain perspective about the industry in that part of the world. As I continue covering the import side of the business, I look forward to building on that knowledge base through conversations with industry officials and future overseas plant tours. From time to time, I will file news and other industry perspectives online and, as always, welcome your response to these Web postings.
