Evenflo High Chair Recall Due to Fall Hazard

A recall has been issued for about 35,000 Evenflo convertible high chairs, following reports that suggest that the trays may detach and allow children to fall, suffering a potential injury. 

The Evenflo convertible high chair recall was announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) on June 5, after Evenflo received at least 18 reports of trays detaching and eight reports of children actually falling from the chairs. The children reportedly suffered only bumps and bruises.

The CPSC has determined that the tray detachment defect poses a risk of injury to a child if the child is unrestrained.

The recall affects the Dottie Lime, Dottie Rose and Marianna model Evenflo convertible high chairs. They have model numbers of 29111259, 29111271 and 29111234, respectively. The model numbers are located on a label near the bottom of one of the high chair’s legs. The chairs convert from a high chair to a table and chair sized for a toddler.

The recalled high chairs were sold at Toys R Us and Walmart stores nationwide, and online at Walmart.com and Wayfair.com for about $40 from December 2011 to June 2012.

The CPSC recommends that consumers with high chairs affected by the recall contact Evenflo immediately for a replacement tray. The trays will come with installation and use instructions. Consumers with questions can call Evenflo at (800) 233-5921 or visit the company’s website at http://safety.evenflo.com.
