Plain-English summary

Safety 1st is recalling approximately 35,000 Décor Wood highchairs due to a fall hazard. The recall includes three specific models: HC144BZF (Casablanca), HC229CZF (Gentle Lace), and HC229CYG (Black Lace). These A-frame black wood highchairs feature a removable fabric seat pad and a white plastic, detachable tray with a cone-shaped center divider. The model numbers are printed under the highchair seat, and "Safety 1st" is printed on the front center of the tray.

The hazard exists because a child can remove the highchair's tray, which poses a fall hazard. Safety 1st has received 68 reports of children removing the trays, including 11 reports of injuries such as lacerations, chipped teeth, and bruises. The highchairs were sold at Babies R Us and Toys R Us retail stores nationwide and online at Amazon, BabiesRUs.com, ToysRUs.com, Walmart.com, and other online retailers from May 2013 through May 2015 for about $120.
