Millions of swings and hundreds of thousands of rockers from 4moms are being recalled due to a strangulation hazard.
The CPSC is recalling two million MamaRoo swings and 220,000 RockaRoo rockers sold in the U.S. An additional 60,000 MamaRoo and 10,000 RockaRoos were sold in Canada.
The recall was issued after reports of two entanglement incidents that involved infants getting caught in the straps that hung underneath the MamaRoo swing while it was not in use. One 10-month-old child died due to asphyxiation and a second 10-month-old child suffered bruising on his neck before he was rescued by a caregiver, according to CPSC. Only MamaRoo models that use a 3-point harness — versions 1.0 and 2.0 , version 3.0 , and version 4.0 — are being recalled.
Any RockaRoos bearing the model number 4M-012 located on the bottom of the unit is also included in the recall. 4moms.com"Consumers with infants who can crawl should immediately stop using the recalled swings and rockers, place them in an area where crawling infants cannot access and contact 4moms immediately to register for a free strap fastener that will prevent the straps from extending under the swing when not in use," according to the CPSC website.
