This recall was just announced by the Consumer Product Safety Commission:

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

Name of Product: Children's Folding Chair

Units Sold: About 1.5 million

Distributor: Atico International USA Inc., of Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

Problem: The chair's safety lock can fail, allowing the chair to collapse or fold unexpectedly. Children’s fingers can become caught or entrapped in the hinge and slot areas of the chair, posing a pinch or cut hazard. This can cause severe lacerations and finger tip amputations to children's fingers.

Suddenly, bean bag chairs for kids seem a lot more reasonable.
