In the CPSC's words
- Description
- This recall involves Semfri-branded children's multi-purpose helmets. The recalled helmets were sold in size medium (M), fitting a head circumference of about 20.5 to 22.8 inches; and in the following colors: orange, black, blue, navy blue, pink, red and white. All helmets have black padding, black straps and a black buckle. The helmets have a black plastic knob at the back of the helmet for adjusting the fitting. The size is printed on a black circular label located inside of the helmet.

The helmets can fail to protect the user in the event of a crash, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to head injury.
- Remedy
- Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled helmets and contact Semfri for a full refund. Consumers should destroy the helmet by cutting the straps and sending a photo of the destroyed helmet to Semfri_recall@163.com.
