Smarty Alert: High Chair Recall

By Tracy S, Charlotte Smarty Pants

Graco is recalling roughly 1.2 million high chairs … the Graco Harmony High Chair. Graco has received over 450 reports of screws loosening/falling out and/or plastic brackets cracking, causing the high chair to tip over unexpectedly. According to the company, the screws holding the front legs of the high chair can loosen and fall out and/or the plastic bracket on the rear legs can crack causing the high chair to become unstable and tip over unexpectedly, posing a fall hazard to children.

These high chairs were manufactured from November 2003 through December 2009 and are no longer in production. The model number can be found on the label that is located on the underside of the foot rest.

Consumers are being advised to immediately stop using the high chairs and contact Graco to order a free repair kit. Consumers can order the repair kit and receive step-by-step instructions on Graco’s Web site.
