Chrome Shelving
Check whether yours is affected, then follow the instructions below.
What’s wrong
Shelving unit casters can break at the stem causing the unit to collapse or fall, posing an injury hazard.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.
