What's the hazard
Strangulations can occur if the shade's looped bead chain is not attached to the wall or the floor and a child's neck becomes entangled on the free-standing loop.
What to do
Consumers should immediately check their window coverings to see if the tension device is attached to the cord and installed into the wall or floor.
