The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. First aid

    Made May 11, 2026, sent to the company May 14, 2026, published by CPSC May 29, 2026

    The product, in the report: Pilates Board

    A resistance band attached to a Flopilates exercise board suddenly snapped off during normal use and struck my daughter directly in the neck, leaving a large bruise and causing significant pain and distress. This created a serious safety hazard and could have resulted in a much more severe injury, especially considering how close the impact was to her throat and face.

    This is the SECOND time a resistance band has failed on this same product. The first incident occurred in February 2026, when another band snapped unexpectedly during use. Fortunately, my daughter was not injured that first time. After the first failure, I contacted the company to report the dangerous defect and safety concern, but the company ignored the complaint and took no corrective action.

    Despite the prior warning, another band failed and this time caused an actual injury. These bands appear incapable of safely handling normal exercise tension and present a serious risk of bodily injury, especially to children and families using the product at home.

    I believe this product should be investigated for potential manufacturing defects and inadequate safety testing before additional consumers are injured.

    Injury Information:

    * Large bruise to neck area * Pain and swelling after impact * Emotional distress from sudden snapping failure

    Additional Information:

    * Second band failure on same board * Prior complaint made directly to manufacturer in February 2026 and ignored * Product was being used normally at time of incident
