Four Retailers Agree to Stop Sale and Voluntarily Recall Nap Nanny Recliners Due to Five Infant Deaths

Recall Insight

This CPSC action (record #13083) was formally reported on December 27, 2012. It is classified under Moderate severity, with a current status of Active. Baby Matters, LLC of Berwyn, Pa. is listed as the recalling firm. Federal records list the affected scope as About 155,000.

The documented reason for this recall is: CPSC is warning parents and caregivers that these baby recliners contain defects in the design, warnings and instructions, which pose a substantial risk of injury and death to infants. Distribution information was not included in the agency filing, so consumers should assume broad potential exposure until the firm publishes point-of-sale details. The remedy documented by the agency is: Consumers should stop using the recalled baby recliners immediately and review the return policy of the individual retailer from which they purchased a Nap Nanny recliner and contact that retailer fo… - consumers holding this product should act on that instruction rather than relying on general guidance.
