CPSC has announced a recall for the Bebamour baby bath seat. However, this isn't meant to scare you, but to remind you of the importance of paying attention to the products your baby uses.
Bathtime is usually filled with giggles, splashes, and sweet moments between you and your baby. But it can turn dangerous if the product you're using is unsafe. On April 10, 2025, the Bebamour baby bath seat recall was officially announced after the seat was found to violate federal safety standards, putting babies at risk of slipping out or tipping over during use.
This recall highlights the importance of infant seat safety and why it's essential to trust the products you bring into your home. Also, product safety in infant care isn't just about peace of mind; it's about protecting your baby during their most vulnerable moments.
Key Facts
The Bebamour baby bath seat was manufactured by Jinjiangshiweixiaobaobeiyingtongyongpin Co., Ltd., doing business as Bebamour, in China, and the recall affected about 1,350 units.

To keep your baby safe during bath time, it's essential to practice good parental supervision. This means you'll have to stay right there with your baby; no stepping away for even a second.
If the recalled product matches the one in your home, stop using it immediately, even if it appears to be fine. It's better to be safe than sorry. Don’t pass it down or donate it either.
Details of the Bebamour Baby Bath Seat Recall
The Bebamour baby bath seat recall was officially announced on April 10, 2025, after it was discovered that the seat did not meet infant bath seat safety standards. It isn't stable enough and can tip over while your baby is using it, which is a safety concern. Also, the leg openings are too wide, so your baby could slip right out. These issues are serious baby bath seat hazards that could lead to injuries or death to babies from drowning. (1)
The bath seat was manufactured by Jinjiangshiweixiaobaobeiyingtongyongpin Co., Ltd., dba Bebamour, of China, and the CPSC recall affected about 1,350 units of this seat. The Bebamour baby bath seat was sold on Bebamour.com and Amazon.com from May 2024 through February 2025 for between $20 and $40. Just in case you're not sure what the seat looks like, it's green in colour and has four suction cups and three bath toys. It is made of polypropylene and thermoplastic elastomer.
The bath seat is about 9 inches high, 14 inches long, and 9 inches wide. It has a model number, “T186”, printed on the tracking label behind the backrest, and “Bebamour” is marked on the seat handle at the front. There is a button that causes water to spray, and the seat features a star design(1). If you have this bath seat at home, the CPSC advises you to request a refund from the company and avoid using it.
The Federal Safety Standards for Infant Bath Seats
When it comes to baby products like bath seats, safety is the number one priority. As a parent, you need to know that the items you’re using are made with care and have passed important tests. That’s why federal safety standards are in place to ensure these products are as safe as possible. Two of the most important standards that help protect babies are the CPSIA and ASTM F1967-24. Here’s how each one plays a role in keeping your baby safe during bath time.
What the CPSIA Does to Protect Babies
One of the important laws that helps ensure baby products are safe is the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act. This organization sets strict rules for the materials and design of products intended for kids, such as toys and baby bath seats. This is done so that they don’t contain harmful chemicals or design flaws that might hurt children. Under the CPSIA law, children’s products are to meet certain safety requirements.
For a product to be CPSIA compliant, it must first follow all safety regulations that apply to children’s items. It also needs to be tested in a lab approved by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), unless there is a special reason that makes testing unnecessary. After testing, the company must create a written certificate, called a Children’s Product Certificate.
This certificate proves that the product meets safety standards. Also, the product and its packaging should include tracking details, like where and when it was made, to help with recalls if needed. For products not made for kids, U.S. manufacturers and importers still need to provide a General Certificate of Conformity (GCC). This document shows that the product meets all applicable safety rules. (2)
How ASTM F1967-24 Keeps Baby Bath Seats Safe
Besides the CPSIA, there is also another important safety rule specifically for baby bath seats. It’s called ASTM F1967-24, and it was designed to help prevent accidents during bath time. The Consumer Product Safety Commission uses this rule to test bath seats and ensure they are stable, strong, and safe before they can be sold in the U.S.
One of the most important aspects of this standard focuses on infant bath seat stability. That means the bath seats must not tip over easily. During testing, if the seat wobbles or leans and only stays upright because it’s pressed against the sides of a tub wall, it still fails the test. This helps ensure the seat stays in place when a baby is sitting in it.
The standard also looks at how the seat is designed and how it fits in a bathtub. Since some newer seats connect to the sides or ends of the tub, the standard added a new testing surface to check how well those designs hold up. This change helps testers try the seat in different positions, just like a parent would, so every setup gets checked for safety.
Another important part of ASTM F1967-24 is the warning labels. The updated rule says the labels must be easy to read and include messages that feel personal and relevant. For example, instead of a basic warning like “Keep baby within adult’s reach,” the label might say, “Stay in arm’s reach of your baby.” This small change can make a big difference because parents are more likely to notice and follow clear, personal warnings.

What Are The Best Practices for Bathing Infants Safely?
Bath time can be fun, but it's also one of the moments that needs your full attention. To help keep your baby safe, consider doing the following practices:
Practice parental supervision during baby baths: This means staying right there with your baby; don't step away for even a second. This is because babies can slip under the water silently and in just a few moments, and sadly, infant drowning risks are more common than many people think. Also, have all your towels, washcloths, and baby soap within reach before you start. That way, you won’t feel the need to turn your back or leave the room.
Position the bath seat properly: To keep your baby safe, always ensure the bath seat or tub you're using is placed flat and securely. Never rely on a bath seat to do the job of watching your child; it’s only a helper, not a babysitter. Keep the water level as shallow as possible and test the temperature with your hand to ensure it's warm but not hot.
Regularly check the safety of your baby's products: Be sure to visit recall websites like CPSC.gov to see if any bath seats or baby gear have been recalled. You can also look for safety labels and certificates that show a product meets infant bath seat safety standards. If you’re ever not sure, it’s better to ask or stop using the item until you’re confident it’s safe.
Steps to Take if You Own the Recalled Bebamour Bath Seat
If you own this product, there are steps you need to take to avoid any injuries. Here’s what you need to do right away.
- Firstly, check if you have the recalled product at home. The Bebamour baby bath seat recall includes green-colored bath seats with the model number “T186,” which is printed on a label located behind the backrest. The seat comes with four suction cups, three bath toys, and a star design on the handle. If you purchased this seat between May 2024 and February 2025, it may be part of the recall and should not be used.
- Secondly, if this matches the one in your home, stop using it immediately, even if it appears to be fine. It's better to be safe than sorry. Don’t pass it down or donate it either. This is because unsafe products should not be reused by anyone else.
- Lastly, contact Bebamour through their website to ask for a refund. When contacting the company, be sure to submit a photograph of the product. Also, you can contact Bebamour by email to learn how to dispose of the product safely.
The Bebamour baby bath seat recall is a clear example of why safety standards, like CPSIA and ASTM F1967-24, matter so much. While recalls can be frustrating or even scary, they’re meant to protect your family and give you the chance to take action before something serious happens.
If you’ve been affected by this recall or know someone who might be, please share the information. Keep checking product safety updates, follow bath time safety tips, and trust your instincts. With your care and attention, you can keep your baby safe and healthy.
