If consumers purchased this product, please contact the Customer Service Team via phone on 1 800 535 091 or alternatively via email on [email protected] to arrange delivery of an alternative model or refund.

In the meantime, the Sofa/ Footstool can still be used, provided consumers ensure it doesn’t come into contact with fire sources such as matches.
