CheerKid Baby Bath Seats Recalled Due to Drowning Risk
About 590 CheerKid baby bath seats sold on Amazon are being recalled because they fail to meet mandatory safety standards and pose a drowning hazard to infants.
What Happened
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced a recall of CheerKid-branded baby bath seats because they violate mandatory federal safety standards for infant bath seats. The products are unstable and can tip over while in use, posing a risk of serious injury or death to children from drowning. No injuries have been reported to date.
Which Products Are Affected
This recall involves approximately 590 CheerKid baby bath seats. The affected seats were sold in gray, pink, and light blue colors and feature five suction cups on the bottom and a multi-colored rolling abacus toy at the front.
Consumers can identify the recalled product by checking the label on the back of the bath seat, which is printed with “Model: BH-222.” The units were sold online at Amazon.com by Babibaby and Woot in September 2025 for approximately $35.
What You Should Do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bath seats and contact Babibaby for a full refund. To receive the refund, consumers must follow these specific disposal steps:
- Write “Recalled” on the front of the bath seat using a permanent marker.
- Disassemble the seat by removing the backrest and arm restraints.
- Discard the screws.
- Cut the five suction cups on the bottom of the seat.
- Email a photo of the disassembled seat, clearly showing the “Recalled” marking on the front, to [email protected].
Why This Matters
The recall is critical because the seats do not meet stability requirements, creating a significant risk that an infant could tip over into the water and drown while the seat is in use.
