LG Recalls Over 50,000 Smart TVs Due To Tipping Hazard
LG has recalled four models of 86-inch smart television because the support legs are proving too weak to hold it upright.
The recall involves LG Electronics 86-inch smart TV models with numbers: 86UQ8000AUB, 86UQ7070ZUD, 86UQ7590PUD and 86NANO75UQA.

LG has received 22 “reports of instability”, and 12 reports of tip-overs. No injuries have been reported.
Given the televisions weight over 45kg, the recall alert from the Consumer Product Safety Commission warns the product can cause “entrapment hazards that can result in injuries or death to children and others.”

Luckily for Australians, the affected TVs were sold in the US, Mexico, and Canada, with 52,000 sold — mostly in US department stores such as Walmart, Best Buy, and Costco, as well as on Amazon.com — between March and September 2022.
It is unknown whether any of the affected TVs are being sold in Australia. Product Safety Australia has not announced a recall. We have contacted LG Australia to confirm.
It’s only the legs that are impacted, so customers who have wall-mounted their 86-inch screens are fine to keep watching.
