Home Decorators Collection Recalls Storage Trunks

January 25, 2007
Home Decorators Collection is recalling about 500 leather suitcase trunks because of an entrapment and suffocation hazard.

The trunk has an exterior clasp that can lock unexpectedly when the trunk lid closes. If a child climbs inside the trunk, he or she may not be able to open the trunk from the inside. This poses an entrapment and suffocation hazard to children.

The recalled trunks are leather bound and have a handle on each side, and a clasp on the front. The trunks are burgundy or brown and are sold in three sizes: small, medium and large. The following catalog numbers were used to identify the product:

The trunks were sold by Home Decorators Collection retail stores nationwide, catalogs, and online at www.homedecorators.com from January 2006 through November 2006 for between $60 and $190.

Customers should stop using the trunk immediately and keep it out of the reach of children. Consumers should contact the firm for information on receiving a replacement product or a full refund.

Consumer Contact: For additional information, consumers can contact Home Decorators Collection at 800 464-0164 between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. CT Monday through Friday and between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. CT Saturday and Sunday.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
