Dream On Me Recalls High Chairs Due to Strangulation Hazard
What's being recalled
Bistro high chairs
Units: About 90
This recall involves all Bistro high chairs with model/style number "255" which is printed on a tag attached to the back of the seat. The high chair was sold in blue or pink. The fabric on the seat has a polka-dot design and "Dream On Me" is printed on a label attached to the front of the white tray. The recalled high chair was manufactured in July 2011 and has a date code printed on a label on the back of the chair.
The problem, in CPSC's words
The front openings between the tray and seat bottom and on the side openings of the high chair between the armrest and seat bottom can allow a child's body to pass through and become entrapped at the neck. This poses a strangulation hazard to young children if the belt is not engaged. In addition, exposed springs between the seat and armrest on both sides of the high chair can create a pinch hazard to the child.
Incidents and injuries reported to CPSC
None reported.
