Hatch Baby Power Adapters for Rest 1st Generation Sound Machines Pose Shock Hazard

Hatch Baby is recalling power adapters sold with Rest 1st Generation sound machines because the plastic housing can detach from the adapter when unplugged, exposing electrical prongs and creating a shock hazard. The firm has received 19 reports of the housing coming off, including two reports of minor electrical shock.

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: This recall involves a risk-of-harm hazard (electrical shock from exposed prongs) that poses a reasonably foreseeable danger to consumers. Although two minor electrical shocks have been reported, the source text explicitly documents injury reports, and the hazard is not merely theoretical. This falls under the "High" category for risk-of-harm products where injury has been reported.

Plain-English summary

Hatch Baby Inc. is recalling AC power adapters sold with some Rest 1st Generation sound machines. The power adapters have model number CYAP05 050100U and feature a white rectangular plastic housing that plugs directly into the wall socket. The plastic housing can come off when the adapter is removed from the power outlet, leaving the power prongs exposed and posing a shock hazard to consumers.

This recall affects approximately 919,400 units sold in the United States (plus about 44,352 sold in Canada). The adapters were sold with Rest 1st Generation sound machines online at Hatch.co and Amazon.com, and at BuyBuyBaby, Target, Walmart, Nordstrom, Pottery Barn Kids, and BestBuy stores nationwide from January 2019 through September 2022 for between $60 and $70, and on Amazon.com from January 2019 through May 2024 for between $60 and $200.

The firm has received 19 reports of the plastic housing coming off, including two reports of consumers who experienced a minor electrical shock. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled power adapters and contact Hatch for a free replacement. Consumers can obtain a replacement by unplugging the cord, cutting the cord on the recalled adapter, taking a photo of the adapter showing the model number and cut cord, uploading the photo, and providing their name and mailing address at www.hatch.co/adapterrecall.
