Baby Bather Recall


According to an article from Huffington Post, Summer Infant is recalling over two million of their Deluxe/Mother’s Touch Baby Bathers. The recall is due to fall and head injury hazards.  

When carrying a baby in it, there is the risk that a baby may fall and develop severe head injuries. The bathers have a faulty side hinge that can cause the wire frame to collapse. 

The products were sold both in-store and online in the United States and Canada. 

So far, there have been seven injuries reported. Of those injuries, four had skull fractures with one requiring intensive care for brain bleeding.  

The bathers being recalled were sold between September 2004 and November 2011 with model numbers:

08020, 08050, 08054, 08070, 08401, 08409, 08404, 08405, 08650, 08655, 08659, 08754, 08940, 08944

18004, 18040, 18049, 18050, 18120, 18125, 18129, 18254, 18360, 18375, 18379, 18390, 18394, 18440, 18445, 18449, 18470, 18475, 18479

38510, 38515, 38750, 38755

The company is offering free repair kits to fix the hinge.
