The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission announced last Thursday that Mattel's Fisher-Price brand is recalling more than 2 million baby swings after five babies died of suffocation while using baby swings. The recall covers all 21 Fisher-Price Snuga swings sold on Amazon, Toys"R"Us and Walmart, among others, for $160 (about 1,130 yuan).
It is reported that the Snuga baby swing is a swing that can swing back and forth and left and right, with a total of 21 models. The headrest and body support inserts in this product are a choking hazard due to a choking hazard. Since 2010, the product has sold about 2.1 million units in the United States, about 99,000 in Canada and about 500 in Mexico. Fisher-Price and the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) strongly recommend that consumers immediately remove the headrest and body support inserts from the swing cushion and cut the tether with scissors. In addition, the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that baby swings should never be used for sleeping, especially when bedding such as blankets is added, which will increase the probability of suffocation. The reporter inquired about the mainland e-commerce platform and did not find the same product. According to the news released by Shanghai on September 13, the Shanghai Market Supervision Bureau introduced that Meitai Barbie (Shanghai) Trading Co., Ltd. recalled the Fisher-Price brand fitness expert newborn gift boxes produced from April 20, 2020 to December 25, 2020 from September 13, 2024 to March 12, 2025, a total of 3,094 pieces. The reason for this is that the gray lid on the end of the dumbbell toy in the fitness guru newborn gift box may come off. If the grey lid comes off the dumbbell toy and is placed in the baby's mouth, it will pose a risk of baby choking.
Previously, Fisher had recalled similar products with a potential cause of death

In addition, at least 1 infant died while using the Kids2 rocking chair. Ben ·Hoffman, chair of the United States Academy of Pediatrics' (AAP) Injury, Violence and Poison Prevention Committee, said that reclining chairs and rocking chairs are similar in that they both tilt the baby down, but at different angles. It is reported that "Fisher-Price" toy company was founded in 1930, is a world-renowned manufacturer of children's toys and related products, in the 90s of the last century, it became a wholly-owned subsidiary of United States Mattel.
