CPSC, Peg Perego USA Announce Recall of High Chairs

Hazard

When the seat is reclined, the high chairs have a space between the armrest and backrest, in which a child's head or arm can become entrapped. This can pose a risk of suffocation or injury to the heads or arms of young children.

Description

The recalled high chairs have seats that can be raised or lowered, and a lever on the back of the chair that allows the seat to be tilted back. The recalled chairs are the "Prima Pappa," "Roller," and "Martinelli Pappa and Nanna." The model names are located on the footrest or the seat back. A sticker on the brace connecting the front leg to the back leg reads, in part, "Peg-Perego" and "Italy." High chairs with 9-inch armrests are not included in this recall.
