Baby seat
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
TOPEAK brand baby seats (Model H-TCSO1-GB 9/03, serial number 768661110642) designed for children ages 1 to 4 years and weighing 9 to 18 kg pose safety risks due to construction defects and inadequate instructions. The seats lack a proper restraint system and instead provide only a crossbar that restricts movement, which creates a false sense of security while children can still fall out and suffer head injuries, fractures, or abrasions. Additionally, the seat's side height is below required standards, the foot guard area is smaller than required, there are no foot retention straps as mandated, and the warning labels and instructions are insufficient. The product does not meet the European standard EN 1434.
The manufacturer has voluntarily withdrawn the product from the market, though the exact date this withdrawal became effective is unknown. The recall was reported by Slovenia.

The product poses a risk of injuries due to constructional defects and incomplete instructions for use:- the product is not provided with a restraint system and only a crossbar restricting the child's movements is provided. This is misleading for the user because it gives a false sense of security although the child can fall out of the seat, which can lead to head injuries or to fracture or abrasion; - the product dimensions do not fulfil the requirements regarding the minimum height for the side of the seat;- the area of integral foot guards is smaller than the minimum area required and there are no required foot retention straps;- the warning and instruction are insufficient. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 1434.
