What this means for you

Highest-severity recall. Risk of serious injury or death is documented or strongly suspected. Stop using the product now and follow the agency's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that infant fatalities have been reported while using other inclined sleep products, which triggers the Critical severity score per the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Dorel Juvenile Group USA is recalling approximately 24,000 units of the Eddie Bauer Slumber and Soothe Rock Bassinet (Model BT055CSY) and the Disney Baby Doze and Dream Bassinet (Model BT071DHS). These inclined sleepers are rectangular, stand approximately two feet off the floor, and are designed for infants from birth to six months of age. The Eddie Bauer model is beige, while the Disney Baby model is purple. The model numbers are located on a label on the underneath side of the fabric of the inclined sleeper pad.

The recall is being issued due to safety concerns about inclined sleep products. Infant fatalities have been reported while using other inclined sleep products, after the infants rolled from their back to their stomach or side while unrestrained, or under other circumstances. No injuries have been reported specifically for these recalled units.

The products were sold at Target, Kmart, Ross, Marshalls, TJ Maxx, and juvenile product stores nationwide from November 2014 through February 2017 for about $60. Consumers should immediately stop using the inclined sleepers and contact Dorel for a refund in the form of a $60 voucher. Dorel can be reached toll-free at 877-657-9546 or by text at 812-373-6673 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or via email at [email protected].
