Product name Baseline Design Beanbag Chairs
Description The recalled beanbag chairs are designed with 12-inch double zippers and have various designs including a smiley face, a football-shape, a baseball-shape, a basketball-shape and solid green, yellow, pink and blue neon colors. The beanbags have a tag that states, in part, "Made by Baseline Design." 
Problem Some of these beanbag chairs have zippers that can be opened, allowing access to the polystyrene beads inside the chairs. This poses a suffocation hazard to young children who can unzip the chair and inhale small beads.
