Dangerous High Chairs

January 5, 2012

Parents do their best to protect their children and purchase products that will help keep their babies safe and comfortable. I am always concerned when products designed for small children become the subject of recalls. Recently IKEA recalled highchairs because the buckle that is attached to the seatbelt can open unexpectedly creating a fall hazard for a child. While this does not sound like such a big deal, the whole point of a seatbelt in a high chair is so your baby is not able to wriggle her way out of the chair, thus giving mom or dad a chance to perhaps grab juice from the fridge or stir a pot on the stove.

If you have one of these chairs contact IKEA for a free replacement seat restraint.
