Mattel (MAT) unit Fisher-Price and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission said Thursday that more than 2 million Fisher-Price Snuga infant swings are being recalled due to suffocation risks.
They said that between 2012 and 2022, there have been five reported infant deaths when the product was used for sleep.
The swing should not be used for sleep and bedding materials should not be added to it because the headrest and body support insert on the seat pad can increase the risk of suffocation.
"Consumers should immediately remove both the headrest (by cutting the tether) and the body support insert from the seat pad before continuing to use the swing for awake-time activities," according to a joint statement. "Fisher-Price will provide a $25 refund to consumers who remove and destroy the headrest and body support insert."
