StoreYourBoard.com Hi-Lift Storage Hoists
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The green straps can break while the Hi-Lift Storage Hoist is in use, causing whatever object was being stored in the hoist to fall, posing an injury hazard to passersby.
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.
