Overview of the Evenflo Settlement

A significant class action settlement has emerged for purchasers of Evenflo's "Big Kid" booster seats. This $3.5 million settlement addresses allegations that the marketing of these seats was misleading. Between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2022, consumers who bought these booster seats may be eligible for benefits under this agreement.

What Claims Were Made?

The plaintiffs in this class action alleged that Evenflo Co., Inc. misrepresented the safety of their "Big Kid" booster seats by claiming they were "side impact tested" and appropriate for children weighing 30 pounds or more. Evenflo, however, has denied any wrongdoing and claims that their advertising was not misleading. The decision to settle was a strategic choice to avoid the costs and potential risks associated with prolonged litigation.

Who Is Eligible?

Eligibility for the settlement extends to all individuals in the United States, including specific territories who made a purchase of an Evenflo "Big Kid" booster seat during the specified Class Period. It's a broad spectrum that encompasses consumers from various regions, including the District of Columbia and U.S. territories like Puerto Rico and Guam.

Settlement Benefits

For eligible Class Members, there are several benefits available:
1. Cash Payment: A pro-rata share from the Net Settlement Fund for every booster seat claimed.
2. Evenflo Credit: Claimants will receive a $25 credit applicable for future purchases of Evenflo products directly via their website.

The maximum number of booster seats that can be claimed is two.

To claim benefits under this settlement, interested parties must submit a Claim Form online or via mail before the deadline of November 24, 2025. The process is straightforward and designed to facilitate consumer involvement in the settlement.

Informational Notifications

Furthermore, Evenflo will offer additional informational resources which include clarifications on the minimum safe weight for using the booster seat and guidelines that comply with federal regulations. Educational resources will also be provided to support parents in safely transitioning their children from harnessed seats to booster seats effectively.

What Are the Options for Consumers?

Consumers wishing to act differently have options. If individuals prefer not to receive cash or credits, they can opt-out of the settlement by submitting a written request postmarked by October 10, 2025. This action will release them from being bound by the settlement terms but will also forgo any claim to the settlement benefits. Alternatively, interested parties can choose to object to the settlement, providing a written objection by the same deadline if they wish to communicate their concerns at the Final Approval Hearing scheduled for February 25, 2026.
