If you’ve purchased a paddle board from Costco, it may have just been recalled. ABC 27 WHTM reports that the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued a recall for a set of paddle boards that were sold exclusively at Costco. The glue on the inflatable boards can separate at the seams, making them deflate and fall apart, which creates a drowning hazard.
The boards that are being recalled include Body Glove Tandem Inflatable Stand-Up Paddle Boards, ULI Inventor Inflatable Paddle Boards, ULI Zettian Inflatable Supyaks, and ULI Lila Inflatable Supyaks. For those who purchased it, Costco notified each individual who bought one.
