Plain-English summary

BabyHome USA is recalling approximately 1,100 BabyHome Eat model high chairs due to a strangulation hazard. The front opening between the tray and the seat bottom of the high chair can allow a child's body to pass through and become entrapped at the neck. This poses a strangulation hazard to young children when the child is not harnessed. No injuries have been reported.

The recalled high chairs are available in red, black, green, purple, navy, orange, and brown. The model number BH2104 is located on a label on the back of the high chair. The word "babyhome" is printed on one leg of the chair and the word "eat" is printed on the opposite leg. The high chairs have a nylon fabric seat with a plastic tray and a metal frame. They measure about 36 inches high and 24 inches wide. A printed white "babyhome" logo shaped like a backwards letter "h" is on the seatback. The recalled high chairs have lot numbers BH00301/01-2012, BH00303/07-2012, and BH00304/09-2012, located on a sticker affixed to the bottom of the footrest.

The high chairs were sold at juvenile product stores nationwide, including USA Baby, Magic Beans, and RC Willey, and online at Amazon.com, Babiesrus.com, and Diapers.com from March 2012 through February 2013 for about $150. Consumers should stop using the high chairs immediately and contact BabyHome USA to receive a free crotch restraint repair kit. BabyHome USA can be reached toll-free at (888) 540-5336 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or online at www.babyhome.es by clicking on "Eat Recall" for more information.
