The product, in the report: Folding Beach Chair for Small Children by Backyard and Beyond. I believe this is the company contact: [REDACTED] Item Number: 67544
The incident was caused by a folding beach chair for small children made by Backyard and Beyond (a Home Goods purchase). My 21-month-old, [REDACTED], tried to sit in one frontally, fell forward on the chair and it folded in on her and somehow deeply lacerated her forehead. We think the laceration was caused by a very sharp loose bolt that is sticking out (see attached picture). The bolts are already rusty after only 7 weeks and loose after minimal wear. She was taken to the ER and had seven stitches.
These chairs are totally defective and not safe in that they have no locks or safety features (unlike many comparable full sized models). If pushed the wrong way, they just fold in. The metal hinges/bolts are really sharp, exposed and could do serious damage to fingers as well. In fact, when folding them up to put them away I pinched myself badly.
What’s even worse, I am having a terrible time tracking down the company that makes the chairs, Backyard and Beyond. [REDACTED]
