BebeLove Baby Walkers
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The walkers failed to meet federal safety standards. Specifically, style number 358 can fit through a standard doorway and is not designed to stop at the edge of a step as required by the federal safety standard. In addition, style number 368 contains leg openings that allow the child to slip down until the child's head can become entrapped at the neck. Babies using these walkers can be seriously injured or killed.
The Recall Registry rates this highest risk — A child can become trapped.
