No one hurt Made Jun 12, 2019, sent to the company Jul 2, 2019, published by CPSC Jul 24, 2019
The product, in the report: Humanscale Float desk (Room & Board custom model with Walnut top). 60”x30”, white base.
The Humanscale Float table is a sit and stand table that has an adjustable height.
This morning when I went to lower the table, the table top came crashing down to the lowest position. Things went flying and one of the monitors hit the back wall and damaged it. Luckily I wasn’t hurt and was just startled.
I first contacted Humanscale using a form from their website but they sent me to Room & Board and told me to use Room & Board process to route the issue to Humanscale’s retail support. Room & Board checked my order and told me that it is a floor sample and thus is sold “as-is” thus we’re not forwarding the issue to the manufacturer. However, I can have it repaired by a third party (All Furniture Service). And Humanscale said to follow Room & Board’s instructions and that’s all they can offer.
I’m adding to this database just so that there is a record of this incident and the conversations that both Room and Board and Humanscale seems to dismiss this safety issue and should anyone be seriously injured or killed then there will be some evidence for a legal complaint.
