4. High chairs sold on Amazon recalled due to ‘risk of suffocation, entrapment and laceration hazards’

"HEAO 4-in1 high chairs pose a suffocation risk because they were marketed, intended, or designed for infant sleep, and they have an incline angle greater than 10 degrees in violation of the CPSC’s Infant Sleep Products Rule and the Safe Sleep for Babies Act," the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission wrote in a news release. "In addition, the high chairs pose finger laceration and entrapment hazards as they failed to meet mandatory requirements under the high chair standard."

The high chairs were sold exclusively through Amazon in black, blue, gold, green, gray, pink and red colors.

"They have a footrest, a detachable tray, seat cushion, and four static or rotating wheels with locks," the USCPSC said.
