What's being recalled

Beaded Curtains

Units: About 36,000

This recall involves two styles of Justice-brand beaded door curtains, the diamond beaded curtain, and the disco ball beaded curtain. These multi-colored curtains are used as a decorative divider in a doorway and measure 72 inches long. Each curtain is sold with two plastic mounting brackets, each measuring 12 inches wide. The name of the product is printed on the packaging and the curtains have tracking numbers 904598.1735 and 904597.1735 printed on labels located on one of the mounting brackets and on the packaging.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The beaded curtains are prone to entanglement. When an adult or child plays with or runs through the beaded curtains, the risks of entanglement and strangulation are posed.

Incidents and injuries reported to CPSC

The firm has received two reports of consumers becoming entangled in the curtains. No injuries have been reported.

What CPSC says to do

Refund

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled curtains and return them to any Justice store for a full refund.
