Plain-English summary

Evenflo Co. Inc. is recalling approximately 213,000 ExerSaucer Triple Fun stationary activity centers. The recall involves model number 6231711, which was manufactured between October 2006 and December 2008. The hazard exists when the product is used in Stage 3 as an activity table; the cap on one end can loosen and fall off, creating a fall hazard for a young child. No other ExerSaucer models use end caps and are not included in this recall.

Evenflo has received 11 reports of dislodged end caps. These incidents resulted in nine minor injuries, including bumps and bruises. The company also received a report of a dislodged end cap that resulted in a child suffering a broken collarbone in Canada.

The affected products were sold at juvenile product and mass merchandise stores nationwide, including Toys 'R Us and Burlington Baby Depot, from October 2006 through February 2009 for about $120. Consumers should immediately stop using the activity table in Stage 3 and contact Evenflo to receive a free replacement end cap. The product may continue to be used in Stages 1 and 2 without changes.
