Folding metal chairs and barstools are being recalled by Cheyenne Products due to fall hazard

Cheyenne Products is recalling about 795,000 Mainstay folding metal padded chairs and barstools.

The weld attaching the legs to the seat bottom can break, posing a fall hazard.

The firm has received 41 reports of incidents of the weld breaking, resulting in 19 injuries, including four reports of fractures and one report of a torn ligament.

This recall involves multiple styles of metal folding chairs and barstools with padded seats upholstered in vinyl or microfiber and sold under the Mainstay brand name.  

A white sticker label on the bottom of the seats includes the name Cheyenne Products or Cheyenne Industries and lists the production date by month and year. Another white sticker label on the bottom of the seat displays a barcode with the model number printed above the barcode, and the UPC printed below the barcode.

The affected models are:
