The product, in the report: Item #3115763 the navy shark print sling chair from Pottery Barn Kids. It’s a chair for kids that you use at the beach. It has a wooden frame and a fabric sling seat. It folds in half.
I ordered item #3115763 the navy shark print sling chair from Pottery Barn Kids’ website back in October 2011. It’s a chair for kids that you use at the beach. It has a wooden frame and a fabric sling seat. It folds in half. My husband put it together at the end of May to use during Memorial Day weekend. My 4 year old son sat in it and after a few minutes when he tried to stand up his finger became wedged in the wooden frame part. He started screaming and we had to help him get it out. The skin on his finger was dented in and the tip of his finger became red and swollen. I contacted PBK and explained to them my disappointment in such a dangerous product for children. They were very kind to me and sorry for what happened. I am now in the process of sending it back to them for store credit. I do not believe they sell this chair anymore because I remember buying it on clearance, but perhaps they still sell it in their outlet stores. I still feel it is important to make a formal complaint about how unsafe this product is.
