Recall: Highchairs Sold in the U.S. Pose Fall Hazard

0

Approximately 83,000 highchairs are being recalled in the U.S. due to faulty construction that has resulted in falls and injuries, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

Affected Models

The recall includes 17 models of Boon Flair and Boon Flair Elite highchairs that were manufactured in China and imported by TOMY International Inc. of Oak Brook, Ill. The full list of affected models can be found on the CPSC website.

Fall Hazard

The CPSC recall notice explains that the “bolts used to secure the seat of the recalled highchair to the pedestal base can become loose and allow the seat to detach, posing a fall hazard.” TOMY has received reports of 34 instances where the chair separated from the base, resulting in 24 falls and 11 injuries, including bruises and scratches.

Retailers

These highchairs were sold at various retailers, including Amazon.com, Bed Bath & Beyond, Target (in-store and online), and Walmart.com.

Recommended Action

The CPSC advises consumers to immediately stop using the highchairs and contact TOMY for a free repair kit. The repair kit provided by TOMY will include a set of bolts and split and flat washers for fixing the recalled highchair.

Contact TOMY at (866) 725-4407 or visit their website for more information and assistance.
