Every line below is in CPSC’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

The snap locks used to secure the seat to the frame can break and allow the seat and child to drop through the frame, posing a fall hazard to young children. Detached snap locks can pose a choking hazard to young children.
