Approximately 6,500 Task*It 1-UP folding step stools are being recalled because the plastic legs can crack or break and collapse while in use. Cramer LLC has received 14 reports of these stools breaking, including two reports of injuries involving head, neck, and back pain. The grey plastic stools were sold nationwide at office supply stores like Staples and online at Amazon between January and December 2012 for about $30 to $40. Consumers can receive a free replacement stool by contacting the manufacturer.
The plastic structure of the stool is prone to cracking or breaking under weight, which can cause the platform to collapse suddenly and lead to serious falls.
Consumers should immediately stop using the folding step stool and contact Cramer LLC for a free replacement step stool.
