Plain-English summary

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is recalling approximately 7,000 Lexibook Baby Bath Seats and Chairs. These plastic seats, intended for children 6 months and older, feature a base with suction cups, a back/arm support, and a toy tray. The products were manufactured in China by Lexibook S.A. of France.

The recall is due to a drowning hazard. The bath seats fail to meet federal safety standards regarding stability and can tip over while a baby is in them. No injuries or illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall.

The products were sold online at Amazon.com, Unbeatablesale.com, Wayfair.com, and Youngexplorers.com from January 2013 through August 2016 for between $30 and $60. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled seats and contact the retailer where they were purchased for a full refund, store credit, or gift card, depending on the retailer. All known purchasers will be contacted directly.
