Macardac Baby Loungers Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Entrapment and Fall Hazards; Violates Mandatory Standard for Infant Sleep Products; Sold on Amazon by Macardac Products

What's being recalled

This recall involves Macardac baby loungers. The recalled baby loungers are made of a foam sleeping pad and padded bumpers with a cloth cover and have a buckle at one end. They were sold in the following colors and prints: blue, brown, brown leaves and pink flower. "Macardac" is printed on an attached tag on the outside of the baby lounger's cover.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The recalled baby loungers violate the mandatory safety standard for Infant Sleep Products. The sides are too low to contain an infant and the enclosed openings at the foot of the loungers are wider than allowed, posing serious risks of fall and entrapment hazards to infants. In addition, the baby loungers do not have a stand, posing a fall hazard if used on elevated surfaces. These violations create an unsafe sleeping environment and can cause death or serious injury.
