Hurt, care not known Made Mar 22, 2017, sent to the company May 30, 2017, published by CPSC Jun 13, 2017
The product, in the report: TV tray table “Durable Top wood surface wipes clean quickly and easily.”
March 12, 2017
Sir:
This letter is to inform your agency about what maybe a serious health risk associated with a product produced in Thailand.
On February 19, 2017, I purchased a TV tray from the Target store located in Falls Church, Virginia - a copy of the sales receipt is enclosed. The TV tray is described in the enclosed “flyer” which came with the product. The flyer states: “Durable Top wood surface wipes clean quickly and easily.” The tray does not have any visible coating or paint.
The flyer displays the tray in what appears to be with a walnut finish. The TV tray I purchased did not have any visible coating. In fact, the surface appeared to be that of unfinished wood. The problem I encountered arose when I stained the tray’s surface with a walnut stain on Monday, March 5, 2017. The use of the stain apparently reacted with what must be a coating intended to make it easier to clean the tray’s surface. The application of the walnut stain may have caused an invisible and odorless gas to be produced. This caused me to experience a breathing problem which is still evident today. I had to remove the tray from my apartment in order to stop breathing the gas. As I write this letter, I still feel some minor breathing problems from the side effects from the gas.
If this is a common problem with this product, it could prove to be very dangerous to people with respiratory conditions. I trust your agency will look into this product to prevent possible harm to others.
Sincerely,
[REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED]
