Government orders recall of 1.2 million high chairs
In the latest recall news, the government is announcing a recall of some 1.2 million high chairs, saying they pose a fall hazard for children. The Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the voluntary recall on Thursday involving a product made by Graco Children’s Products Inc. of Atlanta.
According to the regulatory agency “screws holding the front legs of the high chair can loosen and fall out” and they also said that cracking plastic brackets can cause the high chair to “tip over unexpectedly.” So far tip-overs resulted in “24 reports of injuries including bumps and bruises to the head, a hairline fracture to the arm and cuts, bumps and bruises and scratches to the body.”
