Summary by Recall Canary from the CPSC notice

What happened

PandaEar of Lake Dallas, Texas and Rockville, Maryland is recalling portable hook-on chairs because they violate the mandatory standard for portable hook-on chairs. The crotch restraints can be removed without the use of a tool, and infants can fall through an opening, posing a deadly fall hazard. No incidents have been reported. The recall involves about 9,700 chairs.

The recalled chairs are used to seat young children at the dining table. They contain a black or gray metal frame covered with black, gray, or blue (dinosaur theme) polyester and cotton material and an attached restraint in the occupant seating area. There are two metal arms with plastic covers on top that anchor to a dining table, and the child is suspended from the table.

"Panda Ear" can be found on a label stitched to the side of the fabric seats. The chairs were sold online at Amazon.com from February 2022 through November 2025 for about $25, and were made in China.
