Comfort Research is recalling about 125,000 vinyl bean bag chairs because children can open the single exterior zipper, crawl inside, and become trapped. This defect creates a serious risk of suffocation or choking on the internal foam beads. The recalled chairs are 88 and 98 inches in diameter and were sold in various solid colors and sports patterns (baseball, basketball, football, soccer) at retailers including Walmart, Target, and Amazon between January 2010 and October 2013 for $30 to $40. No injuries have been reported, and consumers can receive instructions to permanently disable the zipper.
Children can unzip the outer cover and climb inside the bean bag, where they can become trapped in the airtight space or inhale/choke on the small polystyrene foam beads.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled bean bag chairs from children and check them for zippers that can be opened. Consumers can contact Comfort Research for instructions to permanently disable the zipper.
