- Consumers should check if their Bugaboo Giraffe needs a repair kit and can request a free repair kit from Bugaboo. If they wish to continue using the highchair, they must set the footrest to its lowest position.
The Bugaboo Giraffe Highchair has been identified as having a safety concern that could lead to injuries. The issue arises when the legs of the highchair are not securely tightened, which may cause them to detach when a child is seated. This detachment can occur due to pressure from the child's legs and feet on the seat and footrest, creating a risk of harm to the child.
The recall affects specific batch numbers: 200001001, 200001002, 200001005, 200001007, and 200001013, with approximately 122 products sold in the Republic of Ireland. Consumers are advised to check if their highchair requires a repair kit using the Bugaboo Giraffe Repair Kit Checker.
To address this safety issue, Bugaboo has initiated a modification program that includes a free repair kit. This kit contains updated screws, a revised Allen key, and installation instructions. Until the screws are replaced, users can safely continue using the highchair only if the footrest is set to its lowest position. For those seeking a refund or further assistance, Bugaboo can be contacted directly at service.uk@bugaboo.com.
