Evenflo, Co. announced a voluntary recall of two models of their high chairs today. They are recalling approximately 643,000 Envision high chairs and they have expanded a previous recall of 90,000 Majestic high chairs due to product defects that have led to injuries in young children.

The Envision high chairs were recalled because recline fasteners and metal screws on the sides of the high chair have been falling out, causing the seatback to fall off or recline at inappropriate times. Children have been falling out of the high chair, leading to bumps, bruises, and cuts on their head. Some children have also choked as a result of the detached hardware.

There have been 320 reports of defective Envision high chairs resulting in 19 head injuries and 35 other injuries. The recalled high chairs were sold in stores between December 2002 and April 2006 and include model numbers:

The Majestic recall expansion has occurred because plastic caps and metal screws on the sides of the high chairs have been falling out, causing the seatback to detach from the high chair. Children have been falling out of the high chair as a result. There have been 16 reports of defective Majestic high chairs resulting in five head injuries and five other injuries. The recalled models were manufactured between January 23, 2007 and December 31, 2008 and include model numbers:
