Gym equipment removed from shelves due to customer injuries.
Attention all weightlifters! If you have recently purchased a Fortis Heavy Duty Adjustable FID Weight Bench from Dick Smith or Kogan, you may want to pay attention to this important announcement. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has issued a national recall for this popular bench, after receiving reports of customers getting injured when it broke during use.

This black bench with red trim has the ability to adjust to a flat, inclined, or declined position, making it a desirable choice for many fitness enthusiasts. However, it has come to light that the welding joint on the seat support may not be as sturdy as it should be, and could potentially fail during use. This poses a risk of injury or property damage if the bench were to suddenly move or collapse.

The product was sold both in stores and online across Australia, including at Dick Smith retailers, Kogan's website, mattblatt.com.au, and mightyape.com.au. This widespread availability means that many people could be affected by this recall. The ACCC has urged all consumers who have purchased this bench to stop using it immediately for their own safety.

If you are one of the unfortunate customers who have purchased this bench, don't panic just yet. You are entitled to a refund, and all you have to do is get in touch with Kogan through their website or by emailing [email protected]. They will guide you through the process and ensure that you receive your refund in a timely manner.

In conclusion, the safety of our customers is our top priority, which is why we have taken this necessary step to protect you from any potential harm. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your cooperation. Stay safe and happy lifting!
