OXO Recalls Nest Booster Seats Due to Fall Hazard

Hazard

The stitching on the restraint straps can loosen which allows the straps to separate from the seat, posing a fall hazard to children.

Remedy

Consumers should immediately stop using the Nest booster seats and contact OXO for a free repair kit with redesigned safety straps and installation instructions.
