OVER 18,000 high chairs have been recalled after 13 babies were injured by the collapsing pieces.
Customers received an urgent warning to stop using the high chairs as they could be deadly to babies.
The popular baby equipment has a potential fall hazard, according to a recall notice posted on June 12.
Bugaboo, a Dutch baby product company, cautioned that the high chair legs might detach from the frame “if the screws connecting the legs are not properly tightened during assembly.”
The hazard may pose a “risk of serious injury or death to babies,” according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Bugaboo is voluntarily recalling 18,280 of its Giraffe high chairs due to the issues.
The recalled high chairs were sold between May 2023 and April 2025.
The products were bought at Nordstrom or online stores like Amazon.
The high chairs typically cost around $380.
There have been 22 reports of the legs of the chair detaching, according to the CPSC.
The 22 reports include 13 reports of minor injuries.
Anyone with the recalled Giraffe high chairs should stop using them immediately and contact Bugaboo for a free repair kit.
Customers who ordered a high chair after May 1, 2025 will automatically have the repair kit included with their purchase, Bugaboo said.
The kit includes an Allen key and new screws to tighten the legs of the high chair.
The kit’s instruction manual explains how to replace the current screws with the better screws using the Allen key.
“Even if you believe your current screws are installed correctly, we recommend that you follow this procedure,” Bugaboo said.
