What is the Problem?
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the recalled high chairs pose a fatal suffocation risk because they were marketed, intended, or designed for infant sleep and have an incline greater than 10 degrees, which violates the federal Safe Sleep for Babies Act. Additionally, the Babyjoy High Chairs pose an entrapment hazard because the opening between the seat and tray is large enough that a child can become entrapped in it, which is a violation of federal regulations for high chairs. The CPSC warns consumers to stop using the Babyjoy High Chairs immediately.
How Do I Know If My High Chair Has Been Recalled?
The February 27, 2025, recall involves all Costway Babyjoy High Chairs. The collapsible high chairs were sold in pink (model BB5656PI), beige (model BB5656BE), and gray (model BB5656GR). The high chairs have a footrest, a detachable tray, a seat cushion with stars, and four static wheels with locks. The high chair can be adjusted for different heights and recline positions. “Babyjoy” is printed on the front of the detachable tray. The model number appears on the product packaging.
The Babyjoy High Chairs were sold at Amazon.com, Walmart.com, Costway.com, and Shein.com from November 2022 through November 2024 for between $70 and $110.
How Common Are High Chair Injuries?
According to the CPSC, from the years 2014-2023, it was estimated that there were at least 117,359 injuries due to high chair incidents. Only baby strollers and baby gates ranked higher.
