4.7 Million Fisher-Price Rock ‘n Play Sleepers Recalled
Fisher-Price recently recalled its Rock ‘n Play Sleepers. The sleepers are made for infants, and they allow for parents to place their babies in bassinet-like beds designed for easy and comfortable sleeping. These sleepers were recalled because infants have tragically died while rolling from their backs to their stomachs or sides while unrestrained. Consumers have been advised to immediately stop using the strollers and to get a refund from Fisher-Price if they own the sleeper. If your child was injured due to an experience with the Rock ‘n Play, you should give the liability lawyers of Moll Law Group a call as soon as possible. Thanks to our team, billions have been recovered in lawsuits after consumer injuries just like these.
Details of the Recalled Fish ‘n Play Product
Approximately 100 deaths have occurred in connection with this Fisher-Price product. Apparently, the deaths have almost always happened when infants have rolled around while in the sleepers, partially because the infants have been entirely unrestrained. Fisher-Price reported that in several of the reported instances, it has been unable to confirm the exact circumstances that caused the related death or injury.
Affected sleepers were sold at Walmart, Target, and online at Amazon. Fisher-Price put the product on the market in September 2009, and they have been sold for anywhere between $40 and $149 since then. As of January 9, 2023, it is illegal to sell or distribute the recalled product. All models of the Rock ‘n Play sleeper have been recalled. To receive a refund for the Fish ‘n Play, consumers can go to Fisher-Price website and submit a claim. The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that more than 4.7 million of the recalled Rock ‘n Play sleepers have been sold to U.S. consumers.
