Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Tailored Baby, Inc. is voluntarily recalling approximately 78,000 "Comfort Cushion" infant cushions sold nationwide between 1988 and April 1990 due to a suffocation risk. The cushions are fabric-covered, polystyrene pellet-filled products intended for use with infants.

Affected consumers may return the paper tag with the manufacturer's name and a six-square-inch piece of fabric cut from the cushion cover to Tailored Baby, Inc. at 500 Library Street, San Fernando, CA 91340 to receive either a free Safety Sitter shopping cart restraint (Model #2082) or an Infant Seat Cushion Cover (Model #1391).
