Evenflo is recalling Top-of-Stair Plus Wood Gates made between October 2007 and July 2009 because the slats can break or detach, creating a fall hazard for children. This affects specific model numbers that have a label on the bottom rail.
The slats on the gate can break or detach during normal use, which may cause children to fall. This happens because the slats are not securely attached to the gate frame, especially when the gate is subjected to regular use.
