Wilson & Fisher Delray 2 pc swivel rocker set The chair's swivel gasket disintegrates and falls off, causing the chair to become wobbly. A visitor leaned back and fell off the chair onto the patio.

The consumer stated that her daughter was playing near her. The consumer’s daughter crawled under the glider and grabbed the paint chip that was on the floor. The consumer’s daughter put the paint chip in her mouth, that the consumer was able to take out. The consumer turned the glider over and noticed a piece of paint missing. The consumer stated the paint chip was about 4-5in long. The paint chip exposed the metal on the glider. The consumer contacted the manf and they informed her that sometimes more paint comes out of the painting machine which causes the paint to chip off. The consumer’s daughter is 7.5 months. There are no recalls on this product. The consumer believes that this is a very hazardous product for children.

The consumer plans on returning the unit to the retailer for a refund. The consumer believes the product poses a safety hazard.

There were two incidents. First one was Sun, Sept 1, 2013. Our patio chair that is a rocker broke. My son was sitting in it and he rocked backwards and the chair went all the way backwards and hit the ground. Fortnately the only thing he hurt was his elbows. A couple of days later the second rocker broke. This was Thurs, Sept 5, 2013. My cousin was rocking my five month old baby in the rocker and then put her in the house. She came back to sit in the chair and as she went to sit down the chair fell backwards and totally snapped off the base. In both chairs the bolts that were holding the chair to the frame snapped. I called the manufacter and reported this and they claim they never had any reports of this happening. I find it hard to believe that the bolts in my chairs are the only ones in the whole country that snapped. Luckily no one was really hurt but I see this as a potential hazard due to the fact this is outside furniture on cement and you could hit your head on the cement. Thinking about my five month old granddaughter, someone holding her could have possible dropped her when the chair fell backwards.

The base of our Hampton Bay Calabria Sling Swivel Rocker broke unexpectedly under normal use. No serious injury, but that was probably just lucky. The chair is rated for 300 pounds and the occupant was certainly less than that weight. The problem is probably similar to the recent Hampton Bay recall for the Hampton Bay Fall River Swivel Rocker Chairs. Two photos are attached to this email, one showing the crooked base, the other photo showing how two of the three supports failed.

In April of 2013, my husband I purchased the Fall River 7PC dining set. We were enjoying it one day on the patio and he leaned back in his rocker and it fell off its base. He was startled and hit his head and arm on the patio. We did not seek medical attention, but he was quite shaken up and bruised. I immediately contact Hampton Bay for a replacement. I even sent pictures of the chair and its broken base to the initial contact. After several months passed and many, many phone calls we finally received a replacement. I thought it was weird that they didn't want the broken chair back...I thought they would want to see if it was faulty. I was told to simply dispose of it. We still have our 7PC set on the patio.

Dana Point swivel rocker became wobbly over about a month time and finally failed.

(8/02/2015) The consumer stated that he was sitting in the chair. After about three minutes, the fiber springs tore away from the bottom of the chair. The consumer fell backward on the wood leaf springs patio deck. The consumer sustained minor laceration to the backs of both hands, his left ear and the back of his head. No medical attention was required.
