Latest Giantex Lounge Chair Recall Updates

May 28, 2026: CPSC Announces Giantex Lounge Chair Recall

On May 28, 2026, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced recall number 26-512, covering about 1,155 Giantex outdoor lounge chairs, model NP10025NY, over a finger amputation hazard [1]. Giantex said the recall followed one report of a consumer’s finger being amputated while adjusting the chair. It is offering owners a full refund through a prepaid return or a destroy-and-photograph option.

Which Giantex Lounge Chairs Are Affected?

Giantex sold one model of outdoor lounge chair under the recall, identified by a single model number printed on the chair’s packaging:
  • Giantex outdoor lounge chair, model NP10025NY (also listed as GT10025-NPSA). Blue in color, measuring 76 inches long, 23 inches wide, and 13 inches high
  • Five-position adjustable locking system with a backrest that adjusts from 13.5 to 26.5 inches. Sold at Giantex.com and Amazon.com from August 2023 through October 2025 for between $75 and $90
Owners can confirm their chair is part of the recall by checking the model number printed on the front or side of the packaging.

Why Were the Giantex Lounge Chairs Recalled?

Giantex recalled the lounge chairs because their five-position adjustable locking system creates a pinch point in the backrest’s adjustment range. When a consumer moves the backrest between its 13.5-inch and 26.5-inch positions, a finger can become caught and crushed. Giantex told the CPSC it had received a single report describing a customer’s finger caught and amputated during that adjustment. That report led the company to recall every chair carrying model number NP10025NY. The design defect affects the chair’s adjustment area rather than its frame or fabric. The hazard is present only when someone repositions the backrest, not during normal seated use.

Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses

Giantex reported one case describing a customer’s finger amputated during a chair adjustment. It passed that report to CPSC before the May 28, 2026 recall, and no other injuries or deaths were reported as of that date. According to MedlinePlus, a traumatic amputation is the complete or partial loss of a body part, most often a finger. It can involve heavy bleeding and crushed tissue that need prompt medical care [2]. A National Institutes of Health overview of hand amputation covers this question [3]. It notes that the level and location of an injury shape how much function a person recovers afterward.

What Should Consumers Do?

Anyone who owns a recalled Giantex lounge chair should take the following steps:
  1. Stop using the chair immediately, and do not adjust the backrest mechanism until the chair has been returned or destroyed
  2. Look for model number NP10025NY on the packaging, front or side, to confirm the chair is part of this recall
  3. Contact Giantex at 844-242-1885 or support@giantex.com to start a refund [4]. You can also visit Giantex’s recall notice page at giantex.com/pages/product-recall-notice
  4. Choose either a prepaid return package or the destroy-and-photograph option, following Giantex’s instructions
  5. Keep proof of destruction or your return tracking number until the refund, which Giantex says arrives within about seven days, is complete
  6. Report the injury or a close call to CPSC at SaferProducts.gov if you were hurt by the chair
No lawsuit, class action, or multidistrict litigation has been filed against Giantex over this recall. One consumer’s reported finger amputation is the only substantiated injury connected to the chair so far. A recall does not automatically establish liability. People hurt by this or a similar product may want to have their situation reviewed.

The right deadline depends on where the person lives and when the injury and diagnosis happened. Anyone considering a claim over the Giantex lounge chair recall should speak with a lawyer promptly. A lawyer can confirm the deadline that applies to their situation.
