BARRIER EXERCISE - 20th of August
Barrier Exercise
Monday, August 20th!
for a free repair kit that includes
a restraint belt and instructions
on how to safely use the seat.
The repair kit can be ordered by
visiting
www.recall.BumboUSA.com
or calling 866-898-4999.
The recall affects all Bumbo
Baby Seats, which the company
said can be identified in several
ways including:
• On the front of the seat in
raised lettering is the word
"Bumbo" with the image of an
elephant on top.
• The bottom of the seat has the
following words: "Manufactured
by Bumbo South Africa Material:
Polyurethane World Patent No.
PCT: ZA/1999/00030." The back
of the seat has several warnings,
and seats manufactured since
2008 also have warnings on the
front of the seat against use on
raised surfaces.
In a statement, the company
said it was adding a restraint
belt to enhance the safety of chil-
dren using the Bumbo seat.
"The restraint belt will help pre-
vent children from getting out of
or falling from the seat when it
is used as intended: on the floor
with adult supervision and never
on raised surfaces," said the
statement.
"The health
and safety of
children using
the Bumbo
Baby Seat are
our top priori-
ties."
The Bumbo
floor seats
were sold at Babies R Us, Tar-
get, Walmart and other retailers
nationwide from August 2003
through August 2012.

CPSC Bumbo Baby Seats have
been recalled for the second
time.
About 4 million Bumbo Baby
Seats are being recalled after
nearly two dozen reports of in-
fant skull fractures.
The Consumer Product Safety
Commission says babies can wig-
gle out of the floor seats.
About 1 million of the molded
foam seats were recalled in Octo-
ber 2007 for additional warning
labels against placing the Bumbo
seats on raised surfaces, such as
tables or kitchen counters.
Since the first recall, CPSC and
Bumbo International of South
Africa have learned of at least 50
incidents in which babies fell
from Bumbo seats while they
were being used on raised sur-
faces. CPSC says another 34 ba-
bies fell from the seats while
they were being used on the floor
or at an unknown elevation. In
all, there were 21 reports of skull
fractures to infants.
Consumers are asked to stop us-
ing the seats and contact Bumbo
