⚠️ Product Recall Ireland: Bugaboo Giraffe Highchair
Parents in Ireland are being alerted to a safety issue concerning the Bugaboo Giraffe Highchair. If the legs are not properly tightened, they may detach when a child is seated, posing a risk of injury.
🛠️ What’s the Issue?
The problem arises when the screws connecting the legs to the frame are not sufficiently tightened. This can lead to the legs detaching under pressure from a child’s movements, especially when using the footrest.
🔍 Affected Batches
Approximately 122 units in Ireland are affected. The specific batch numbers are:
- 200001001
- 200001002
- 200001005
- 200001007
- 200001013
These highchairs were manufactured in the Czech Republic and sold between April 2023 and April 2025.
🧰 Bugaboo’s Response: Free Repair Kit
Bugaboo has initiated a modification programme, offering a free repair kit that includes:

To determine if your highchair requires the repair kit, visit the Bugaboo Giraffe Repair Kit Checker.
✅ Interim Safety Measures
If you need to use the highchair before receiving the repair kit, Bugaboo advises setting the footrest to its lowest position. This can be done by pressing the two buttons on either side of the footrest and sliding it down.
