Pottery Barn Kids Recall Outdoor Trunks

Pottery Barn Kids is recalling about 80 Chesapeake Outdoor Trunks. A problem with the lid support on the trunk could cause the lid not to stay open, posing the risk of an impact injury to a child's head, fingers or hands. Cameron toy chests are also being recalled.

No injuries or incidents have been reported.

This recall involves all Chesapeake Outdoor Trunks. The model number (6512982) is printed on a sticker under the trunk. The trunks are made of tropical hardwood and measure 40 x 19 x 25" high.

The trunks were sold through the Pottery Barn Kids Web site and catalog from March 2005 through late April 2005 for about $350.

Consumers should immediately stop young children from using these outdoor trunks and contact Pottery Barn Kids to determine if their trunk is included in the recall. Pottery Barn Kids will provide consumers with a replacement trunk or refund.

Consumer Contact: Contact Pottery Barn Kids at (800) 699-0449 between 7 a.m. and 12 midnight daily or visit the firm's Web site at www.potterybarnkids.com
