Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Recalled product: Summer Infant Recalls to Repair Baby Bathers Due to Fall and Head Injury Hazard Consumers should order free repair kit

The hazard

When the bather is lifted and/or carried with an infant in it, its folding wire frame can suddenly disengage from the side hinge, dropping the baby out of the bather, posing a fall hazard and a risk of serious head injury to infants.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the bathers and contact Summer Infant for a free repair kit that includes a locking strap and instructions. Note: Even with the new locking strap installed, the baby bather product should never be used to lift and carry an infant.
