What are the defects?

'Matchstick' roman style blinds manufactured between January and March 2013 were not marked with the mandatory safety warning sticker on the outer packaging as required by the Trade Practices (Consumer Product Safety Standard—Corded Internal Window Coverings) Regulations 2010.

What are the hazards?

Failure to install the blinds in accordance with the instructions or installing them while unaware of the risk of strangulation by the cord poses a serious safety risk to children.

What should consumers do?

If consumers are unsure if their blind was installed according to the safety instructions, they can obtain the instructions from any Bunnings store or by visiting www.bunnings.com.au. Alternatively they can return the product to any Bunnings store for a full refund.
