An update from the Pike County Health Department:

Times Tienda Recalls Children’s Desks and Chairs Due to Violation of the Federal Lead Paint and Lead Content Bans.   

Surface paint on the desks and chairs contains levels of lead that exceed the federal lead paint ban, posing a lead poisoning hazard. The desks and chairs also fail to comply with the federal lead content ban. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled children’s desks and chairs and return them to a Times Tienda store for a full refund.​
