Adventure Playsets Wooden Swing Set Recall
On May 11, 2006, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced a voluntary recall of wooden swing sets distributed by Adventure Playsets, dba Backyard Ventures Inc., of Amarillo, Texas. The Adventure Playsets wooden swing sets have defective bolts that could cause the swing set frame to detach from the fort structure, posing a fall hazard to a child or other user. If a child fell while swinging, serious injuries could result, including a broken arm or leg or a head injury.
Below is the description of the Adventure Playsets wooden swing sets in the CPSC recall announcement:
The recalled swing set models include: The Durango, Tacoma, Oddsey, Bellvue, Monarch, Grand Teton and Outlook II. The swing sets are made of wood, and feature various types of slides, swings and a fabric canopy over part of the structure.
The Adventure Playsets wooden swing sets were sold at Wal-Mart, Menards, and Toys “R” Us stores nationwide and Wal-Mart.com from February 2006 through March 2006 for about $1,000.
