Graco Wooden Highchair Recall Issued Due to Risk of Chair Detaching

Almost 90,000 wooden highchairs have been recalled in the United States and Canada, after reports have been received of the seat portion of the toddler chairs detaching, potentially causing children to fall and suffer serious injuries.  

The Graco Classic Wood Highchairs recall was announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) October 9, after the manufacturer received at least  58 reports of the high chairs’ seats detaching from the base or becoming loose.

At least nine children suffered bumps, bruises, and scratches as a result of falls from the highchairs, with at least one Canadian child reportedly suffered a concussion.
