A lounge chair manufactured by Giantex and sold on Amazon.com has been recalled following a serious safety incident in which a customer lost a finger while adjusting the chair, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) [1]. The CPSC stated that the chair poses an 'amputation risk' due to a pinch point that can trap consumers' fingers during adjustment [1].
Approximately 1,155 units of the affected lounge chair are included in the recall. The recalled product is blue, measures 76 inches long, 23 inches wide, and 13 inches high, and features a five-position adjustable locking system with a backrest height adjustable from 13.5 inches to 26.5 inches [1]. The model number NP10025NY is printed on the front and side of the product packaging [1].
The chairs were sold on Amazon.com and Giantex.com between August 2023 and October 2025, with prices ranging from $75 to $90 [1]. The CPSC has advised consumers to immediately stop using the recalled lounge chairs and contact Giantex for a full refund. Customers will be instructed to either request a prepaid return package or destroy the chair by detaching the headrest pillow, cutting the fabric, and providing photographic proof of destruction [1].
This recall highlights the importance of product safety and the potential reputational and financial risks for manufacturers and retailers involved in such incidents. No information was provided regarding market reactions or analyst opinions [1].
CONCLUSION
The recall of Giantex lounge chairs sold on Amazon follows a severe safety incident resulting in a finger amputation. Consumers are urged to stop using the product and seek a refund. The event underscores the critical need for stringent product safety measures in the consumer goods sector.
