Is my product affected?

3-in-1 Cradle Swing with Detachable Carrier and Bounce 'n Play™ Activity Dome

  • Brand Fisher-Price, of East Aurora, N.Y.

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Fisher-Price is recalling two infant products due to safety hazards. The 3-in-1 Cradle Swing (model numbers 79321 and 79322) has a detachable seat that can be used as a carrier, and the handle locks can unexpectedly release, causing the seat to flip forward and infants to fall. The Bounce 'n Play Activity Dome (model 79534) has nylon bands that can detach from the surface, causing it to tilt and potentially trapping an infant in a position that makes breathing difficult. Model numbers can be found on the underside of the motor housing and bottom of the seat for the swing, and on a notice tag on the bottom of the Activity Dome.

According to the recall notice, consumers should immediately stop using the swing's seat as a carrier and the Activity Dome. For the 3-in-1 Cradle Swing, Fisher-Price will provide a free repair kit that locks the handle in place and can be installed at home; consumers may continue using the seat as a cradle swing. For the Bounce 'n Play Activity Dome, Fisher-Price has discontinued the repair kit and consumers should discontinue use of the product immediately. Consumers should contact Fisher-Price for assistance in determining if their Activity Dome is affected by the recall.

Hazard

When this happens, infants can fall to the ground and suffer serious injuries.

This can cause an infant to slide down against one end and be trapped in a position, bsing difficult to breathe, posing a suffocation hazard.

What should I do?

Consumers should stop using the swing's seat as a carrier immediately. Fisher-Price will provide a free repair kit that will lock the carrier's handle in place. The repair can be done quickly and easily in the home. Consumers can continue to use the seat as intended as a cradle swing. Consumers should stop using the Bounce 'n Play Activity Dome immediately. Fisher-Price has discontinued distribution of the repair kit for this product. Consumers should discontinue use of the item immediately.
