243 Kmaier infant walkers sold on Target.com recalled over stair-fall hazard

What was recalled

About 243 Kmaier infant walkers are covered. They come in pink, green or white and have a tray, a fabric seat and a round base with six wheels. The walker adjusts to nine different height levels. "Model No.: RV001" is printed on a label located under the seat.

The notice lists FENUN, Inc., doing business as Kmaier, of Pasadena, California, as the retailer. Target is named only as the sales channel, Target.com. The walkers were manufactured in China and sold for between $62 and $70.

At about 243 units this is a small recall, but the hazard is serious: a fall down stairs while strapped into a walker. This is a recall of one model, RV001, not of every walker sold on Target.com and not of any other Kmaier product; the notice names nothing else.

Why it was recalled

The CPSC notice states the reason in one sentence: the walkers "violate the mandatory standard for infant walkers because they can fit through a standard doorway and fail to stop at the edge of a step, posing a deadly fall hazard."

The notice points to two requirements. A walker must not fit through a standard doorway, which keeps a baby from rolling out of the room they are in, and it must stop at the edge of a step, which keeps it from going down a stairway. According to the CPSC, the Kmaier walker fails both.

Related nursery-product recalls announced the same day include the HABA Rainbow Rattle and the Chillife Montessori baby toy set. The CPSC's own related-recalls list on the Kmaier notice also includes baby jumpers and swings from Taleco Gear and play yard and crib mattresses sold on Amazon, which gives a sense of how often infant gear is pulled for failing a mandatory standard.

Where it was sold

The walkers were sold online at Target.com in June 2026 for between $62 and $70, according to the notice. No physical Target stores and no other websites are listed.

A one-month sales window makes this easy to check: if you bought a Kmaier walker through Target.com in June 2026, it is covered. Look at your Target order history for the brand name and, if you still have the walker, the label under the seat.

Target.com was also a sales channel for the HABA Rainbow Rattle recalled the same day. If you buy baby gear through a large retailer's website, note that the recall contact here is the seller, Kmaier, not Target; the notice gives no Target phone number or return instruction. The CPSC's recalls page can be searched by retailer as well as brand if you want to see what else sold through Target.com has been recalled.

How to identify an affected walker

The identifier is "Model No.: RV001," printed on a label located under the walker's seat. The notice describes the walker as having a tray, a fabric seat, a round six-wheel base and nine height settings, in pink, green or white.

Because only one model is named, the model number is what matters. A Kmaier product with a different model number is not part of this recall, and a walker from another brand that looks similar is not either. If the label under the seat is missing or unreadable, your Target.com order history (June 2026, Kmaier) is the fallback, and you can email the seller with that information.

Reported incidents and injuries

None reported. The CPSC notice lists "Incidents/Injuries: None reported."

The recall rests on the walker's failure to meet the mandatory standard rather than on any reported accident. The notice does not describe how the failure was found, and it does not need an injury on record to instruct consumers to stop using the product.

If your child has had a fall or other incident involving this walker, report it to the CPSC at SaferProducts.gov or by calling 800-638-2772, and mention recall number 26-721. Reports made after a recall is announced still count, and with an email-only seller they may be the only way an incident reaches the agency.

What to do if you have one

The remedy is a full refund from Kmaier. The CPSC notice states: "Consumers should stop using the recalled walkers immediately and contact Kmaier for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to disassemble the walker; destroy it by cutting the walker's fabric seat and writing in permanent marker 'Recalled' on the top of the tray; and send a photo of the destroyed walker to TargetplusSJ@outlook.com. Consumers should then dispose of the recalled product."

The only contact channel on the notice is that email address. There is no phone number, no website and no mention of returning the walker to Target.

1. Stop using the walker immediately.
2. Check the label under the seat for "Model No.: RV001" and find your Target.com order confirmation.
3. Disassemble the walker, cut the fabric seat, and write "Recalled" in permanent marker on the top of the tray.
4. Photograph the destroyed walker and email the photo to TargetplusSJ@outlook.com to request the full refund.
5. Dispose of the walker. Do not sell it, donate it or give it away, and keep a copy of your email until the refund arrives.

Who issued the recall and when

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall on Aug. 27, 2026, with recall number 26-721. The notice title notes that the walkers violate the mandatory standard for infant walkers. The firm named is FENUN, Inc., doing business as Kmaier, of Pasadena, California, listed as the retailer; the walkers were manufactured in China.

No deadline for refund requests appears on the notice, and no end date is given for the recall. Because the only contact is an email address, keep a copy of what you send and when.

The notice is one of several children's-product actions the CPSC published on Aug. 27, 2026, alongside the Little Loves & Co. drawstring clothing recall and two product safety warnings for toys whose sellers would not agree to a recall: Warm Feather highchair teething toys and Girigi magnetic blocks. Unlike those warnings, this recall comes with a company refund.

How to monitor recalls and why to keep your receipts

A 243-unit recall with an email-only contact is easy to miss. Check the CPSC recalls page for baby gear, toys and household products, or subscribe to CPSC email alerts. For food, drugs and cosmetics, use the FDA recalls page and FoodSafety.gov alerts; for meat and poultry, USDA FSIS recalls; for vehicles, the VIN lookup at nhtsa.gov/recalls. Retailer notifications and the brand's own website round it out.

Keep receipts, order confirmations and photos of packaging and labels (model numbers, lot codes, UPCs, best-by dates). If a company refund, reimbursement or a future claim program becomes available, that paperwork may be what proves you owned the product; it is also what class action claim forms usually ask for. Owed does not track recalls, but it does track open class action settlements on its settlements page.
