Plain-English summary

Mayborn USA, Inc. is recalling two models of the Tommee Tippee Monitor with Movement Sensor Pad (models 1082S and 1094S) due to a strangulation hazard. The recall involves approximately 25,000 units sold in the U.S. and 3,500 units in Canada. The products were sold at Toys "R" Us/Babies "R" Us stores and Amazon.com since September 2011 for approximately $150.

The hazard exists because a child can pull the 10-foot sensor pad cord into the crib and wrap it around their neck. No injuries have been reported to date. The sensor pad fits under the crib mattress and sounds an alarm if no movement is detected for 20 seconds.

Consumers should immediately ensure all monitor cords are out of reach of the child. They should contact Mayborn USA to obtain a free cord cover kit, which includes rigid protective cord covers, a new warning label, and revised instructions. Consumers can contact Mayborn USA toll-free at (866) 214-1537 or visit the company's website to order the kit.
