Three Large Recalls Of Baby Furniture After Child Injury And Death


Posted on Dec 24, 2009

We like to think that our children are safe in their beds or in their strollers, but even established infant product companies can produce defective children’s products that could cause serious injury or death. In the last month, three different serious baby product recalls have been announced in the United Sates:

•    After two different suffocation deaths were reported, 24,000 Amby Baby Motion Hammocks were recalled across the nation. The recalled baby motion beds, which gently rock and bounce the baby, led to infants rolling and becoming trapped in the bed’s sides or mattress. The Consumer Product Safety Commission urged all people with the hammock to stop using it immediately and to call the retailer for more information. A repair kit is not yet available.
•    Maclaren has announced an enormous voluntary recall of their umbrella strollers after years of reports regarding finger amputations and finger injuries when digits become caught in the sharp side hinge mechanism. Over the last decade, 15 incidents have been reported according tot he US CPSC. Those with umbrella strollers are urged to request a repair kit and to call the company with any questions or concerns. Dangerous strollers include the Volo, Triumph, Quest Sport, Quest Mod, Techno XT, Techno XLR, Twin Triumph, Twin Techno and Easy Traveller.
•   Stork Craft has recalled a half-million drop-side cribs after 10 separate incidents involving babies and toddlers becoming stuck in the moveable side of the crib. This can lead to suffocation and busing. Most incidents occur when the defective brackets on the side of the crib break. The CPSC recommends that all parents stop using the crib until they use the bracket repair kit. The cribs could be purchased at J.C. Penney, Kmart and Walmart stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com, Babiesrus.com, Costco.com and Walmart.com.
