What Is Being Recalled?

Clark Core Services LLC, doing business as Clark Associates, of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, is recalling about 158,486 Lancaster Table & Seating powder-coated aluminum outdoor chairs and barstools in the United States, in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The recall was announced February 5, 2026, and assigned recall number 26-253.

The recall covers three configurations — arm chairs, side chairs (no arms), and barstools — sold under roughly 180 item numbers in colors including blue, brown, dark gray, light gray/silver, red, white, aqua, black, green, sangria/burgundy, yellow, and orange. The chairs and barstools were sold through Clark Pro and Clark National Accounts nationwide and online at webstaurantstore.com, therestaurantstore.com, and quicksupply.com between April 2020 and October 2025 for between $55 and $133. Affected products can be identified by the item numbers printed on order confirmation emails, shipping confirmation emails, and invoices.

Why Are the Chairs Dangerous?

According to the CPSC recall notice, the legs of the recalled chairs and barstools can bend or break while the chair is in use, posing a fall hazard. Clark Associates received 36 reports of broken or bent chair legs at the time of the recall, including four reported falls and three injuries.

Because these chairs and barstools were sold primarily for commercial use — at restaurants, bars, cafes, and outdoor patios — a single affected business may own many of the recalled units. The CPSC advises owners to stop using the recalled products immediately.

Who Is Affected by the Recall?

You are covered by the recall if you own Lancaster Table & Seating powder-coated aluminum outdoor arm chairs, side chairs, or barstools purchased between April 2020 and October 2025 through Clark Pro, Clark National Accounts, or the Clark Associates online stores. Because the products were sold under about 180 item numbers, the fastest way to confirm whether your chairs are included is to match the item number on your order confirmation email, shipping confirmation email, or invoice against the recall.

How Do I Get My Refund or Store Credit?

Clark Associates is handling the recall through the official Lancaster Table & Seating recall page. There is no cost to participate:

• Stop using the recalled chairs and barstools immediately
• Confirm your chairs or barstools are affected by matching the item numbers on your order confirmation email, shipping confirmation email, or invoice
• Mark each recalled chair and barstool with the word "RECALLED" in permanent marker or paint and dispose of it through your local waste handler
• Complete the refund request form on the official Lancaster Table & Seating recall page, enter the number of recalled units, and check the certification confirming you have marked and will dispose of them
• Choose a full reimbursement of the purchase price as a refund to the credit card used at purchase or a store credit

A traditional sales receipt is not required, and there is no photo to upload. The remedy is certification-based: you identify the product by its item number, mark each unit "RECALLED," dispose of it, and certify that you have done so on the online form. An order number is helpful but optional. Because it is illegal to sell or give away a recalled product, all affected units in your possession must be marked and disposed of.
