Hazard

A child can become lodged between the seat back and side table of the chair, possibly leading to an entrapment of the neck. This can pose a strangulation hazard to young children.

Remedy

Consumers should take the recalled musical chair away from children immediately and contact Fisher-Price to receive a free repair kit that contains a plastic piece that connects in between the seatback and side table, preventing the possibility of entrapment.

Incidents & injuries

Fisher-Price has received three reports of young children getting their necks lodged between the seat back and the side table of the toy, including one report of a child receiving a welt on the neck.
