Confer Plastics Recalls 100,000 Pool Step Systems Amid Drowning Hazard Concerns

If you’re a pool owner who recently had a step system installed, you may want to pay attention to a recall recently issued by Confer Plastics. Confer Plastics manufactures and distributes pool step systems for inground and above ground pool, but the company is recalling nearly 100,000 Curve in-pool step systems over concerns that “children’s limbs can get trapped, creating a drowning hazard.” In fact, according to the recall notice, the company has already received two consumer reports claiming “children’s arms became entrapped in the side panels of the steps, causing minor abrasions.” Fortunately, no drownings have been reported.
