Another baby has died in a 'Nap Nanny.' This was the sixth fatality involving the previously recalled infant recliner.
According to an article in Yahoo, an eight-month-old girl from New Jersey suffocated after becoming stuck between the chair and crib bumper.
Parents are warned to steer clear of recalled products at yard sales and consignment stores.
“Our message to parents is clear: Stop using it. It’s dangerous,” said the Consumer Product Safety Commission's (CPSC) Communications Director, Scott Wolfson. “There’s been six deaths already, and we don’t want another child to die unnecessarily.”
Some 165,000 'Nap Nanny' and 'Chill' recliners were sold between 2009 and 2012, and for a time following the recall the chair remained in stores. Baby Matters LLC insisted their product was safe when used according to its guidelines.
The company has been dissolved for two years now, but the deaths continue.
YMC regularly publishes recalls on baby and children's products.
