Summary

Midwest-CBK is recalling about 550 distressed gray wash bistro chairs because the metal frame can bend or break during use.

Affected chairs were sold at gift stores nationwide between August 2011 and June 2013 for about $110. Consumers should immediately stop using these chairs and contact the company for a full refund.
