(NewsNation) — A kitchen product is being recalled due to a safety hazard that puts consumers at risk of a fall or other injury.
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the Dorel Cosco 2-step kitchen stepper is being recalled. Cosco has received 34 complaints of the safety bar detaching or breaking, including two incidents resulting in head injuries.
The recall affects about 302,000 units sold in the U.S. and 11,000 sold in Canada. It was sold at several major retailers like Walmart, Target and Amazon.
The CPSC said consumers should stop using the safety bar on the recalled kitchen stepper immediately and store the unit away from children until repaired.
People with the affected model numbers can contact Dorel, who will send a free repair kit. It includes a sliding, locking mechanism that attaches to the safety bar to prevent the safety bar from detaching or breaking. Consumers will also receive installation instructions and an additional warning label to place onto the product.
