Following the tragic deaths of at least five infants across the United States, Fisher-Price is recalling 2 million swings over suffocation risks. 

The concern lies with the company’s Snuga Swing products, which feature pillows depicting different animals, such as raccoons, cats, bears, and puppies, on which parents can lay their infants down before clipping them safely inside. Included in the recall are replacement sleep pads for these swings. 

Similar products appeared to still be for sale Wednesday online at retailers such as Walmart and Poshmark, retailing anywhere from $50 for used products to over $100 for new ones. In reporting from CNN, some of the recalled swings were allegedly for sale for $160.

On April 5th, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a warning to consumers about the Fisher-Price Rock ‘n Play after another infant death, the tenth tragedy in less than 4 years.

The statement warns that infants aged 3 months or older, who are able to roll over while seated unrestrained in the Fisher-Price sleep, will be able to turn to their stomach or on their side and suffocate. CPSC recommends consumers to stop using the product when the infant is three months of age, or as soon as an infant exhibits rollover capabilities.

Needless to say, additional steps must be taken to reach as many consumers as possible. Many parents will continue to use the product unless Fisher-Price reaches out to or attempts to reach out to all of them.
