  • Brand Osprey Child Safety Products LLC, of Cortez, Colo.

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

What happened

Osprey is recalling Poco AG, Poco AG Plus, and Poco AG Premium child backpack carriers because a cut in the plastic buckle on the shoulder strap can cause the strap to release, potentially causing a child to fall. The affected carriers are nylon models in seaside blue, ivy green, or black with a metal frame and gray padded child's seat. They have production date codes of S16SB03, S16SB04, S16SB05, S16SB06, or S16SB07, which are stamped on a black label inside the large lower zippered compartment.

Consumers should immediately inspect the buckles on both shoulder straps for cuts. If a cut is found, they should stop using the carrier and contact Osprey for a free replacement or full refund, or send the carrier to Osprey for inspection. If a cut is confirmed, Osprey will provide either a replacement carrier or a full refund.
