First up, it’s the First Years Newborn-to-Toddler Reclining Feeding Seat. Apparently the seat restraints don’t do the one thing they are supposed to — you know, restrain — and they’ve received 38 reports of the straps almost or completely pulling out with 12 reported incidents of kids falling out of the seat so far. The recall includes all of this model of feeding seat except those with an “R” stamped inside a raised circle, situated on the left and right of the seat back. Seats with seatbelt slots nine inches apart are also not affected by the recall. Sold nationwide between November 2006 and October 2007 for around 30 smackers.
Now, we’ve certainly jumped on the lead paint bandwagon, but if your kid is chewing on his potty seat you have a lot more to worry about than lead poisoning. Check RC2’s website for more information about these two recalls. Tag: Highchair and Bouncer Seat RecallsBookmark to:

It’s Two-fer Thursday here at Total Recall, courtesy of RC2 Corp. and their toddler seat recalls!
Next, we have RC2’s First Years 3-in-1 Flush and Sounds Potty Seat. This potty seat, sold between April 2006 and August 2007 nationwide for between $20-$25, has a decorative Winnie the Pooh plaque that could have orange paint that contains excessive levels of lead — oh, Tigger, that may help explain your strange behavior. If you have this seat, contact RC2 and they’ll send out a clear, protective cover to go over the plaque.

About 1,400 of these were sold in specialty stores and online from September 2006 through March 2007. Model number is 2005, and the seat is brown with either white, pink, or blue stripes and went for a cool $100. (No shit?! It looks like it was put together with a couple of coat hangers.) If it wasn’t so pricey I would say just to toss it and get a new one, but unfortunately it seems you’ll have to contact Oeuf and get replacement parts. Yes, that’s right, you have to fix it yourself you style-conscious sucker. Tag: Highchair and Bouncer Seat RecallsBookmark to:

Ah, the bouncer seat. Mommy and daddy’s tool to be able to take a dump or a shower (or, on a good day, both). Sometimes it can be absolutely invaluable — unless, of course, the frame breaks and the baby cracks his head on the floor, which is apparently the danger of this Oeuf bouncer seat that is subject to a recall.
