Fisher-Price Recalls Ultra-Lite Play Yard Inclined Sleeper
June 2019 — Fisher-Price has recalled about 71,000 inclined sleeper accessories sold with Ultra-Lite Day & Night Play Yards due to serious safety concerns about inclined sleeper products.
What is the Problem?
No injuries or deaths were reported with the Ultra-Lite Play Yard inclined sleeper accessory. However, Fisher-Price previously recalled over 4.7 million Rock ‘n Play Sleepers after at least 32 babies died.
Inclined Sleepers Pose Risk of Injury or Death
Fisher-Price warns that infants can suffocate to death if they roll from their back to their stomach or side while unstrained, which can cause their face to press against the fabric sides of an inclined sleeper.
Another risk of inclined sleepers is “positional asphyxia,” in which a very young infant who can’t hold their head up suffocates because their chin touches their chest and compresses their airway.
What Products Were Recalled?
Fisher-Price recalled the inclined sleeper accessory sold with all Ultra-Lite Day & Night Play Yards with model numbers CBV60, CHP86, CHR06, CJK24, and DJD11.
The play yards were sold nationwide from October 2014 through June 2019 for between $90 and $110.
Recall Only Includes Inclined Sleeper Accessory
Only the inclined sleeper accessory poses a safety hazard, according to Fisher-Price. Consumers can continue to use the play yard part of the product without the inclined sleeper accessory.
What Should I Do?
Fisher-Price is asking consumers to immediately stop using the inclined sleeper accessory and contact the company for a refund or voucher.
