Attention parents and parents-to-be! The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced an important recall concerning popular Graco high chairs. Roughly 86,000 Graco Classic Wood High Chairs are beging recalled because the manufacturer says the high chair’s seat can loosen and detatch from the base, causing a child to fall. There have been more than two dozen reports of high chair seats becoming loose, and in some cases children fell and became injured. Graco says it has received one report of a concussion.

The recall involves all Graco brand Classic Wood Highchairs sold in three wood finishes. The high chair has a top seat, bottom leg assembly and removable tray. The high chair is sold with a beige fabric seat cover. The impacted model numbers are:

  • 3C00BPN
  • 3C00BPN TC
  • 3C00CHY
  • 3C00CHY TC
  • 3C00CPO
  • 3C00CPO TC

The recalled Graco Classic Wood High Chairs were sold at Babies R Us,  Burlington Coat Factory, Target, and Walmart between September 2007 and December 2010. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled high chairs and contact Graco for a free repair kit. Government officials also warn that it is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product.

If your child has been impacted by a defective Graco high chair or any defective product, please keep the product and contact a personal injury lawyer immediately. Having the item on hand is important in proving your case.
