Product name | Kids & Koalas baby walkers | |
Description | This recall involves the Kids & Koalas-branded baby walkers. The foldable baby walkers have eight wheels and a seat with adjustable height.

Model number X002 can be found on an attached hang tag underneath the product and on the packaging. | |
Problem | The baby walkers fail to meet the federal safety standard. Specifically, they can fit through a standard doorway and are not designed to stop at the edge of a step as required by the federal safety standard and they have leg openings that allow the child to slip down until the child's head can become entrapped at the neck. Babies using these walkers can be seriously injured or killed. | |
