Boppy sold about 3.3 million of the recalled loungers at juvenile product stores and mass merchandisers nationwide and online, including Pottery Barn Kids, Target, and Walmart and online at Amazon.com. The loungers were sold from January 2004 through September 2021 for between $30 and $44.

Why are they being recalled?

According to the CPSC, infants can suffocate if they roll, move, or are placed on the lounger in a position that obstructs breathing, or roll off the lounger onto an external surface, such as an adult pillow or soft bedding that obstructs breathing.

Furthermore, the CPSC stated that the infants reportedly suffocated after being placed on their back, side or stomach on the lounger and were found on their side or on their stomach. The tragic infant deaths occurred between December 2015 and June 2020.

Comments From The U.S. Government

“These types of incidents are heartbreaking,” said Acting Chairman Robert S. Adler.

“Loungers and pillow-like products are not safe for infant sleep, due to the risk of suffocation. Since we know that infants sleep so much of the time – even in products not intended for sleep – and since suffocation can happen so quickly, these Boppy lounger products are simply too risky to remain on the market.”
