Goalsetter is recalling about 18,000 Adjustable and Fixed Wall Mount and GS Baseline Series basketball goals in sizes 48, 54, 60, and 72 inches. The basketball goal can detach from the wall and fall to the ground, posing a serious impact injury hazard. There have been four reports of these goals falling, resulting in one death of a 14-year-old boy and serious injuries to others, including facial trauma and a fractured leg. Goalsetter is offering a free removal with a full refund or a free inspection with the installation of a safety bracket.
The heavy basketball goal assembly can unexpectedly detach from its wall mount and fall onto individuals below, posing a risk of death or severe impact injuries. One fatality and several serious injuries have already been reported.
Consumers should stop using the recalled wall-mounted basketball goals immediately and contact Goalsetter for free removal of the basketball goal with a full refund or a free inspection of the installed wall-mounted basketball goal and free installation of an additional safety bracket.
