Cost Plus World Market is recalling about 125,000 Twist Swivel Stools because a weld joint that connects the seat to the center post can break. The firm has received 12 reports of the stool's joint breaking, which can cause the seat to detach while someone is sitting on it. These stools feature light brown wood seats and four black metal legs, and were sold nationwide and online from February 2011 through February 2015.
The weld joint attaching the seat to the center post can fail, causing the seat to break off and posing a fall hazard to the user. Twelve incidents of this joint breaking have been reported, though no injuries have occurred yet.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled stool and return it to any Cost Plus World Market or World Market store for a full refund. Refunds can be used toward the purchase of a replacement stool when it becomes available.
