The hazard
The chair can inadvertently be misassembled, so that the fabric seat can come off the chair's frame and expose metal support rods. If fabric seat comes off the frame, there is a laceration and fall hazard to young children.
Incidents reported: Delta Enterprise Corp., has received six reports of the fabric seat coming off. In two of these reports, children received lacerations from the exposed metal seat support rod, with one child requiring stitches. There were two additional reports of minor injuries.
What to do now
Consumers are advised to stop using the chair immediately and contact Delta Enterprise Corp., to receive a free repair kit consisting of new assembly instructions and four straps, which will prevent the fabric seat from coming off.
