CPSC, Evenflo Announce Recall to Repair Home Décor Swing™ Wooden Baby Gates

Reported: October 10, 2001 Initiated: October 10, 2001 #02010

Product Description

These Home Décor Swing™ gates have turned wooden spindles and were sold in oak or cherry finishes. Only model numbers "1555/6" with manufacture dates before September 2001 are included in this recall. Model numbers and date codes appear on the label located on the bottom of the gate. No other Evenflo gates are affected by this recall.

Reason for Recall

The plastic mounting hardware that attaches to the wall can crack or break, allowing the wooden gate to unlatch. Children can then gain access to restricted areas, such as stairs. Also, the plastic hardware attached to the side of the gate can break, creating small parts that pose a choking hazard to young children.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using these gates immediately, and call Evenflo to receive free replacement hardware.
