LuckupShein window roll-up shades recalled for strangulation hazard

A recall has been issued for LuckupShein window roll-up shades, sold exclusively on SHEIN.com. This is a government-mandated recall backed by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The recalled products do not comply with federal requirements for window coverings because of long operating cords that present strangulation and entanglement hazards.

Internal review identified these hazards, prompting the CPSC to take action. Approximately 545 units are affected across online sales in the United States. The company is offering a free repair option and is advising consumers to stop using and to disable the cords on the recalled items.
