The product, in the report: Summer Infant/Carter’s® Whisper Classic Comfort Reclining Wood High Chair Model80830
I purchased the Summer Infant/Carter’s wood highchair ( ) from JC Penny’s in the Spring of 2011. With this particular high chair, the seat cushion is integral to keeping the straps secure and above the shoulder. The slit in the cushion positions the strap. I followed the manufacturer’s directions and washed the seat cushion on gentle cycle and air dried. After only 10 months of use (max 10 washings since I usually just wiped clean), the seams came apart on the bottom part of the cushion. Since this was before a big move, I did not contact the company then. I did contact them in Feb/March of 2013 and explained the situation, asking for a new cushion because I thought it was defective. They would not send one to me, but said I had to pay since it was no longer under warranty. I did purchase one because I need the chair (with a new baby on the way). I requested that a manager contact me, and no one has done so. I’ve called back 3-4 times, and have not been able to reach any human voice (waiting 20-30 minutes each time).
I feel like this is a defective product and potentially very hazardous to babies/toddlers using this high chair. I certainly don’t mind paying for a new cushion if I felt we had worn it out from use, but I believe that it is a defective product.
