Amazon Exclusive Infant Loungers Recalled for Suffocation Hazard
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a warning to parents to stop using baby and infant loungers sold exclusively on Amazon by Gorsetle US. The loungers do not comply with federal safety standards for infant sleep products, posing a risk of suffocation and fall hazards. The CPSC's Infant Sleep Products Rule requires products like bassinets and loungers to have legs or a stand if they don't meet other standards. Gorsetle's loungers were marketed as "GORSETLE Baby Loungers" and retailed for approximately $60. The company is not cooperating with the CPSC on a recall and is not offering a remedy to consumers. This is the third lounger warning issued by the CPSC in June. Parents are advised to provide a safe sleeping environment for babies and infants, including using a firm, flat surface and avoiding soft items.
