  1. No incident, no one hurt

    Made Feb 20, 2012, sent to the company Feb 28, 2012, published by CPSC Mar 20, 2012

    The product, in the report: Playground slide made by Playworld Systems Inc likely in 2010. Lime green in color. Could not locate it in current online catalog from manufacturer but looks identical to recalled slide made by another company (the [REDACTED]).

    I would like to report hazardous playground equipment and request a recall for a playground slide. This slide is identical to a slide recalled this week but is made by another company.

    In late 2010 or early 2011, a playground slide was installed in my local city park which is manufactured by Playworld Systems Inc. The ladder on the slide has no handrails. The top of the ladder where it meets the chute portion of the slide has no platform or transition area. The slide/chute portion does not have sides or handrails or any way to avoid a fall. An identical slide was recalled this week (the [REDACTED]) for these same reasons and this slide is identical in function, safety, and design so I believe the product made by Playworld Systems should also be recalled.

    The slide is not on the Playworld Systems website so it may not be manufactured any longer and I do not know make/model name of this particular slide, but it is still in place in my local park and, I assume, many other parks around the country. For your information, I reported the Playworld Systems slide as potentially hazardous to my (volunteer) home owners association in May of 2011 and also to my local city parks department. I refuse to let my child play on the equipment and other parents have expressed the same concerns. My husband attempted to go down the slide to see if it was safe. He was unable to safely climb the ladder and transition onto the chute portion of the slide without falling and was unable to safely go down the slide without falling as well.
