Israel's Economy Ministry has issued an urgent safety warning regarding a high chair model for toddlers distributed across the country, citing critical structural failures that pose severe injury risks.

The Consumer Protection and Standardization Administration announced that the "Feed me" high chair, model number 8008, manufactured by FUJIAN PROVINCE JINJIANG CITY / QUANGZHOU WANJIABA in China, failed basic load tests and risks sudden collapse.

Safety Failures and Laboratory Results

Laboratory tests conducted by the Standards Institution of Israel revealed that the product does not comply with mandatory standard SI 14988. During standard weight and stress simulations, the chair collapsed completely, exposing seated infants to fall hazards, head trauma, and severe physical injuries.

In addition to structural deficiencies, inspectors discovered that the high chair is marketed without a user manual or essential safety warnings, violating regulatory requirements.

Consumer Directives and Enforcement

Authorities have ordered an immediate halt to the use, marketing, sale, and display of the defective product across all retail stores and online platforms in Israel.

The Ministry of Economy emphasized that producing, importing, or selling non-compliant goods violates the Standards Law, warning that merchants and importers found violating the directives will face severe administrative and criminal enforcement proceedings.
