Plain-English summary

UncleWu Life LLC, based in Avondale, Arizona, is recalling approximately 360 infant bath seats. The recalled seats are molded plastic with navy and powder blue color combinations, suction cups on the bottom, a seat back, flat base, and a T-shaped handle. These seats were sold exclusively on Amazon.com from December 2020 through June 2021 for approximately $40.

The bath seats fail to comply with federal safety regulations for infant bath seats, specifically requirements for stability and leg openings. Due to these defects, the seats can tip over while in use, creating a drowning hazard for infants aged 6 to 18 months. No injuries have been reported.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled infant bath seats. To obtain a refund, consumers should contact UncleWu Life at [email protected], visit www.unclewulife.com or https://unlcewulife.myshopify.com/, or request a pre-paid return label. UncleWu Life and Amazon are notifying all known purchasers directly.
