Mamas & Papas Recalls Armadillo Strollers Due to Fall Hazard

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Mamas & Papas is recalling approximately 3,000 Armadillo Flip and Armadillo Flip XT strollers because a loose latch can cause the seat to tip back unexpectedly. This defect occurs when the stroller is in the parent-facing position, which can lead to an infant falling. There have been 10 reports of seats tipping back, though no injuries have been reported yet. These folding, single-occupant strollers were sold in various colors including black, teal, and navy and weigh about 22 pounds. Consumers should immediately stop using these strollers and contact the company for a free repair.

Risk

The stroller's latch can fail to hold the seat securely, causing it to tip backwards suddenly while an infant is inside. This movement poses a significant fall hazard to the infant, especially when the seat is positioned to face the parent.
