Child products sell in huge numbers, and one of the mainstays of this product niche is the booster seat, which allows young children to sit up higher and be fed along with adults and older children, among other things. However, not all of these products are safe, and one line of child booster seats sold by Target has been recalled due to eight reports of product failure and reports of injuries because of these failures.
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commision Web site:
“This recall involves Circo booster seats with manufacture date codes XJ0811, XJ0812, XJ0901, and XJ0902. The plastic booster seat is blue with green trim and has white straps. The manufacture date code is printed on the backside of the seat next to the consumer warning information. “Circo” can be found on a label located in the front of the seat.”
43,000 units have been recalled, and the reason is that the restraining buckle can come undone, leading to falls to the floor. The products are manufactured in China and the CPSC has advised consumers to immediately stop using this product. If your child has suffered as a result of the use of this defective product, you need to take action.
