The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced a voluntary recall of Circo Child Booster Seats manufactured by Target. The booster seat’s restraint buckle can open unexpectedly, allowing a child to fall from the chair and be injured. This recall includes about 375,000 seats and expands upon an earlier recall of 43,000 booster seats in August 2009 following additional reports of the seat buckles opening unexpectedly. All Circo Booster Seats, including those sold as early as 2005 are included in the expanded recall. The seats are blue with green trim and a white plastic restraint buckle. They attach to an adult chair to boost a child to a table. “Circo” and “Booster Seat” are printed on a green label located in the front of the seat. Consumers are advised to immediately stop using the recalled booster seats and return them to a Target store for a full refund.
