What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (fall hazard) where a fall occurred but no injury was reported, fitting the High severity criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.

Plain-English summary

MamaLittleHelper LLC is recalling about six infant and toddler hammock metal stands. The recalled product consists of a silver-colored, C-shaped metal stand approximately five feet tall. These stands were sent to consumers with hammock model numbers 1010 and 1020 instead of the original metal frame advertised with the hammock.

The C-shaped metal stand can break where the curved arm attaches to the leg of the metal frame. This defect poses a fall hazard to an infant in the hammock. The company reported one incident where a four-month-old infant girl fell out of the hammock when the stand broke, but she was not injured.

The stands were sold online at www.mamalittlehelper.com from December 2009 through February 2010 for about $100 with the hammock. Parents and caregivers should immediately stop using the hammock stands and find an alternate, safe sleeping environment for their baby. Consumers can contact MamaLittleHelper to receive a free metal hammock stand in exchange for the recalled C-shaped metal stand.
