What’s the Problem?
Persilux brand zebra blinds have been recalled after regulators determined the products’ long operating cords can create strangulation and entanglement hazards for young children.
The recall states the blinds violate the federal rule for window coverings and labeling requirements, presenting a substantial product hazard. Roughly 133,000 units were sold on Amazon across multiple colors and sizes, with none of the incidents resulting in reported injuries to date.
The hazard profile centers on accessible, long cords that can form loops around a child’s neck and inner components that may not comply with required safety limits.
Although we are not aware of any lawsuits currently filed against the importer or brand, we are actively investigating potential claims involving strangulation risk, near-miss incidents, and related emotional and economic harms linked to these blinds.

FDA Reports and Statistics
Window coverings are overseen by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, not the FDA. Safety regulations for corded blinds are governed by the federal rule for window coverings, which aims to eliminate or limit hazardous cords and to standardize safety labeling. Families should report incidents and near-miss events to the SaferProducts database to support ongoing surveillance and enforcement.
Persilux Zebra Blinds Injuries & Side Effects
Strangulation and entanglement hazards in corded blinds can lead to severe, sometimes fatal outcomes. Reported or reasonably foreseeable harms include:
- Strangulation – long accessible cords can form loops around a child’s neck, restricting airflow
- Entrapment – limbs, clothing, or accessories can become caught in cord loops or mechanisms
- Fall or impact injuries – a caught child may fall or strike nearby surfaces while entangled
- Emotional trauma – significant distress for children and caregivers after a near-miss or entanglement event

Statute of Limitations for Persilux Zebra Blinds Lawsuits
State deadlines for filing product liability claims typically range from one to four years, and wrongful death statutes may differ. Because evidence can be lost or altered when blinds are removed or repaired, families should document the product and installation before making changes. Prompt legal review helps protect claims and align next steps with applicable deadlines.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know if my blinds are included? – Compare the brand and packaging to recall details, including color range, sizes, and sales dates, and confirm you purchased them on Amazon between 2023 and 2025.
- Is it safe to keep using them while I wait for the repair kit? – No; remove the blinds from areas accessible to children until the operating cord is replaced with the approved wand.
