Ethan Allen is recalling about 7,000 American Impressions and New Country rectangular dining tables. These tables can be missing stability blocks that could result in the table collapsing.
Ethan Allen is aware of 33 incidents of tables collapsing where a table may have been missing sufficient stability blocks. Ethan Allen is not aware of any injuries caused by a table which collapsed.
Recalled tables can be identified by a visual inspection of the underside of the table, looking for the presence of eight wooden blocks (see photo below). If the wooden blocks are present, no corrective action is needed
The tables were sold at Ethan Allen stores nationwide from August 2003 through January 2005 for between $1,069 and $1,199.
Consumers should stop using the dining table and inspect the underside of the table. Consumers who purchased a recalled table are asked to contact the Ethan Allen Recall Center. Ethan Allen will schedule a service appointment and take corrective action.
