Over 20,000 portable stadium seats recalled nationwide
(WHTM) — The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall of more than 20,000 portable folding stadium seats due to fall and injury hazards.
According to CPSC, about 22,500 AMX Global Portable Folding Stadium Seats have been recalled because the bleacher security hooks can crack and break, posing fall and injury hazards for consumers.
To date, AMX Global has received five reports of the security hook breaking, including two reports of falls and one injury involving bruising, headaches, and a pinched nerve.
These recalled seats were sold at BJ's Wholesale Club and Big 5 Corp stores nationwide and online at from July 2022 through January 2024 for between $30 and $50.
CPSC says this recall specifically involves the AMX Global Portable Folding Stadium Seat sold under the BJ's Wholesale (Berkley Jensen logo) or Black Sierra (Black Sierra Equipment logo) brand.
The recalled Berkley Jensen seats have the date code '04/2022' on the white tag on the bottom of the seat, and the recalled Black Sierra Equipment seats have the date codes '05/2022' or '11/2022' on the white tag on the bottom of the seat.
Moving forward, consumers are told to immediately stop using the recalled seats and destroy them by cutting through the fabric of the seat and backrest. You should then take a photo of the destroyed recalled seat, including the consumer's initials and the date in the photo.
You can then send the photo to AMX Global at support@ to receive a full refund.
