Plain-English summary

Jané USA LLC is recalling about 800 US model Jané Muum strollers. The recalled strollers have a black frame, a reversible reclining seat or hammock, and a hood. They were sold in dark gray and black (S85), light grey and black (S49), blue and black (S46), and green and black (S47). The strollers were sold from July 2016 through August 2017 for between $300 and $450 at retailers including Albee Baby, Baby World, Kidsland, Toys R US, Dainty Baby, USA Baby stores, and online at Amazon.com and other websites.

The recalled strollers violate the federal Stroller and Carriage standard. An infant can pass through the opening between the stroller armrest and the seat bottom, allowing the head and neck to become entrapped by the armrest. This poses entrapment and strangulation hazards. No injuries have been reported.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled strollers and contact Jané for a free repair, which consists of a free replacement armrest. Consumers can continue using the strollers if they remove the armrest and harness the child properly until they receive the replacement armrest. Jané can be contacted toll-free at 844-200-7971 or online at www.jane-usa.com.
