Description

One side of the seat cushion has a sewn-in label at the top, which says "the first years by Learning Curve." This recall includes all feeding seats except those with an "R" stamped inside a raised circle located on the far left and right of the back of the seatback or those with waist strap slots that are nine inches apart.

Hazards

The restraining straps can pull out of the waist strap slots, posing a fall hazard to young children.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the feeding seat immediately and contact RC2 to obtain free replacement straps.
