Office chair with prop 65 warning?

[Hugh R]

Yep, lots of litigation has historically happened.

[john walker's workshop]

fire retardant was recently blamed for the rash of hyperthyroid deaths in cats. of course it's in everything, including cat food.

I bought the 35.00 walmart swivel office chairs. They have padded seat and back. Also are adjustable height . Takes about 5 minutes to put together. They work well . Make sure to get the adjustable ones . Put garbage bags around them after the season they will last longer. Make sure you got carpet on the floor or wheels will make a little noise. Also spray with wd40 to eliminate any squeaks.

Any vinyl flooring has petroleum distillates used in its manufacture, hence the warning.

It is not the entire state that is crazy, only like 55-60% It is getting worse, or appears to be, because all the people with resources and talent are fleeing with alacrity.

I don't think there is anything on the market right now that doesn't have a Pro 65 warning on it.

Wow, weird spammer. Pulls up a thread from long ago, and instructs us to put garbage bags around cheap chairs. Strangest post I have seen in a while promoting cheap walmart chairs.

[Steve Carlton]

One of those bags should go over his head. With a Prop 65 sticker, of course.

[flipper35]

I am surprised the prop 65 sticker doesn't have its own prop 65 sticker.

I rented a car in San Diego.....had the sticker for Prop 65

We call Cali the NANNY state.

You should put a garbage bag around it. That is the fix evidently.

[badcar]

In my work I have to test for it on all product I make. In manufacturing of tents, in order to sell in California, we must pass the CPAI-84 standard (California standard for material burn rate with exposed flame) by adding flame retardant to the textile...which triggers failure to pass Prop 65 requirements..... So threading that needle is fun. Too little- fail CPAI-84, too much, fail prop 65.

2013 was such a good year, life was so simple back then.

Just put the warning on it. You might be nekkid, but your ass will be covered.

Bought bread the other day - it had a prop 65 warning on it.

That's funny!

I live about as far a way from California as you can get, and yet -- I purchased a stainless steel ruler from Amazon that had a prop 65 label affixed. The 12" ruler could cause my death because it was contained in a plastic sleeve!! That sleeve... is dangerous!

Are you sure about that?
