Recall On Nap Nanny Baby Recliner After Death Of Infant

Nap Nanny Baby Recliner Recall -

After the death of a four-month-old little girl, Nap Nanny is recalling their nap nanny sm-250. The 4-month-old infant died while being strapped into the Nap Nanny, and as a result there has been a recall of over thirty thousand of the popular baby recliner.

The infant was properly strapped in the foam based bed when she was discovered hanging limp over the side of the Nap Nanny. She had become wedged in between the baby recliner and the bumper of her crib.

The manufacturer of the Nap Nanny announced that the baby recliner was not designed to be used within a crib and should always be placed securely on the floor away from any other products.

Even though in this case the Nap Nanny was being used improperly, it has not been the only incident that has involved an infant falling over the side despite being properly strapped in. In fact, there has been at least twenty-two very similar incidents with most of them involving infants under the age of five months.

The Nap Nanny is a baby recliner that includes a foam base with an indention in the middle especially created for an infant to sit in. It also has a fitted fabric cover and a three point harness. The recalled recliners are the first generation models to be manufactured without the D-rings in the foam to secure the harness straps.

If your Nap Nanny does not have these D-rings, then you should immediately stop using it and contact Baby Matters to receive a coupon for eighty dollars off the purchase of a new Nap Nanny with free shipping.

Those consumers who have the second generation Nap Nanny recliner with the D-rings attached to the foam base and Velcro straps inside the fitted fabric cover should also stop using the product, until they have visited the Baby Matters website to view new product warnings and an instructional video with details on how to properly fasten the harness.
