What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: This recall meets the Severe criteria because there is a reported injury (a child's finger laceration requiring medical attention) involving a risk-of-harm product. Additionally, the products violate federal safety standards for both infant sleep and high chair use, indicating structural or design defects that create multiple hazards.

Plain-English summary

Brandline, dba Max Lead International Ltd. of Dallas, Texas, is recalling about 820 HEAO 4-in-1 high chairs due to multiple safety hazards. The high chairs were sold exclusively on Amazon.com from November 2022 through September 2023 for approximately $170. They were available in black, blue, gold, green, gray, pink, and red, with adjustable height, multiple recline positions, a footrest, detachable tray, seat cushion, and four static or rotating wheels with locks.

The recalled high chairs pose a suffocation risk because they were marketed, intended, or designed for infant sleep and have an incline angle greater than 10 degrees, violating the CPSC's Infant Sleep Products Rule and the Safe Sleep for Babies Act. Additionally, the high chairs pose finger laceration and entrapment hazards because they failed to meet mandatory requirements under the high chair standard.

The firm is aware of one incident in which a child suffered a laceration to their finger that required medical attention. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled high chairs. To obtain instructions on disposal and receive a full refund, consumers should contact Brandline at 302-261-5366 Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET or email [email protected].
