Dangerous and Defective
Portable Baby Swings |
|
| According to the Consumer
Product Safety Commission, baby swings may pose
a danger to infants. There have been many reports
of swings that collapse, break, tip over, or allow
a child to fall. |
| Recent recalls include: |
- Graco Children's Products Travel Lite
Swings
In July 2004, Graco Children's Products of Exton, Pennsylvania voluntarily
recalled 140,000 Travel Lite swings. The swing's carrying handle reportedly
could fail to stay in place properly and drop or be pushed down, hitting
a child in the head. Additionally, the 3-point seatbelt could fail
to prevent a child from leaning forward or to either side, posing a
risk that the child could fall forward and strike her head on the floor
or the swing's frame.
- Baby Trend Infant Swings (Sold at Toys
'R' Us)
Baby Trend Inc. of Ontario, California
voluntarily recalled for repair about 15,000
infant swings in November 2002. A screw on
the swing's support arm could reportedly loosen
or detach, causing the seat to separate and
drop to one side.
