Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Dream On Me is recalling about 50,000 baby bath seats, including the Baby Bath Seat, Ultra 2-in-1 Infant Bath Tub and Toddler Bath Seat, and Niagra Baby Bath Seat models. These seats fail to meet federal safety standards for stability and can tip over while in use, which poses a serious drowning hazard to infants. There have been five reports of these seats tipping, including one incident where a 12-month-old girl nearly drowned. The recalled seats were sold at various small retailers and online through Amazon.com and Wayfair.com between July and September 2012. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled seats and contact Dream On Me for a free replacement bath tub.

Risk

The bath seats can unexpectedly tip over during use, potentially submerging an infant underwater where they may be unable to right themselves, leading to a risk of drowning.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using all Dream On Me bath seats, including models 251, 252, and 253.
  2. Check underneath the bath seat, on the rear of the seat, or on the original product packaging for the Dream On Me label and model numbers to see if your product is affected.
  3. Verify if your seat matches the affected models: Baby Bath Seat (251B, 251O, 251P, 251Y), Ultra 2 in 1 Infant Bath Tub (252B, 252P), or Niagra Baby Bath Seat (253B, 253G, 253P, 253Y).
