On September 25, 2025, federal regulators recalled about 133,000 Persilux zebra blinds<\/b> sold on Amazon, citing child strangulation hazards. If you have corded shades at home, your living room may already carry the same hidden risk.<\/p>\nCPSC\u2019s Sept. 25 move puts Persilux on notice for 133,000 units<\/h2>\n
The recall covers Persilux-branded \u201czebra\u201d blinds sold on Amazon from June 2023 to June 2025. Regulators say the operating cords violate the federal window-covering rule, creating strangulation and entanglement hazards<\/b> for children. Packages show \u201cPersilux\u201d and \u201cZebra Blinds,\u201d with barcode label X003FFPT63<\/b>. No injuries have been reported, but the risk profile is severe and immediate.<\/p>\nWhy parents of toddlers rest easier while renters still face cords<\/h2>\n
Parents who replace or retrofit to a wand-operated kit remove the loop that poses the worst hazard, reducing risk during play and nap times. Renters, however, often inherit older corded shades that landlords haven\u2019t updated, leaving dangling cords at child height. That gap in control is where accidents happen quickest.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe recalled blinds have long operating cords that can cause death or serious injury to children due to strangulation and entanglement hazards.\u201d \u2014 U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recall notice.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Secure your shades now with these steps before October 25, 2025<\/h2>\n
Consumers are eligible for a free Persilux repair kit that replaces the cord with a rigid wand. Take photos of the cut cord as proof, then request the kit and installation instructions. Prioritize rooms where children visit or sleep, and move cribs and play areas away from windows until the fix is complete.<\/p>\n
