Fisher-Price Recalls Over 2 Million Infant Swings After 5 Deaths

The recall follows reports of suffocation risks linked to the Snuga Swings, which should not be used for infant sleep.

  • The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of all Fisher-Price Snuga Swings models due to suffocation hazards.
  • Five infant deaths between 2012 and 2022 were reported, involving babies aged 1 to 3 months who were unrestrained and had bedding added.
  • Consumers are advised to remove the headrest and body support insert from the swings, with Fisher-Price offering a $25 refund for these parts.
  • Criticism has been directed at Fisher-Price for not recalling the entire product, with concerns that the partial recall is insufficient.
  • The swings were sold across major retailers in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, and should not be used for infant sleep under any circumstances.
