Infant Bath Seats Recalled Due to Drowning Hazard; Imported by Frieyss and Sold Exclusively on Amazon.com (Recall Alert)

What's being recalled

This recall involves Frieyss infant bath seats. The bath seats are blue plastic with four green suction cups on the bottom. Stickers featuring clouds, a lion, a sun and a squirrel holding two ballons are on the front bar. The seat is about 13 inches wide, 12 inches deep and 8 inches high. The bath seats are advertised as suitable for baby ages 6 months to12 months. A sticker on the packaging states, "(barcode-X002RAO6GV) Baby Shower Chair...Made in China." "Pull rubber tab below to release suction pads from bath" is stamped on the bottom of the bath seat.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The bath seats fail to meet the federal safety standard for infant bath seats, including requirements for stability and leg openings, and can tip over while in use, posing a drowning hazard to babies.
