Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Fisher-Price is recalling approximately 34,000 Cradle 'n Swings because a seat peg can become unfastened, causing the seat to fall unexpectedly. The recall includes three specific models: the Soothing Savanna, Sweet Surroundings, and Sweet Surroundings Butterfly Friends cradle swings. These products were sold nationwide at stores like Target and buybuyBaby, as well as online at Amazon.com, from November 2015 through March 2016 for about $170. Consumers should immediately stop using the swings and contact Fisher-Price for updated assembly instructions.

Risk

If the seat peg is not fully engaged, the seat can detach and fall while in use, which poses a risk of injury to the infant. Fisher-Price has received two reports of the seat peg coming out and the seat falling, though no injuries have been reported yet.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled cradle swings until you have verified the assembly.
  2. Check the product number located on the seat under the pad to see if your model is affected. The recalled models are: CHM84 (Soothing Savanna), CMR40 (Sweet Surroundings), and CMR43 (Sweet Surroundings Butterfly Friends).
  3. Inspect the seat peg to ensure it is fully engaged and flush against the seat base as shown in the safety images provided by the manufacturer.
  4. Contact Fisher-Price at 800-432-5437 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or online at www.service.mattel.com under the 'Recalls & Safety Alerts' section to receive revised assembly instructions.
  5. For any additional questions regarding this recall, contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772.
