Product

Eddie Bauer Rocking Wood Bassinets

Description

The bottom locking mechanism can fail to lock, allowing infants to roll into the side of the bassinet. Two infants were reported to have breathing difficulties when this happened.

Hazard

The bottom locking mechanism can fail to lock properly if a spring is not installed, allowing the bassinet to tip to one side and cause infants to roll to the side of the bassinet. This poses a suffocation hazard to infants.

Incidents / Injuries

Dorel has received 17 reports of incidents with the recalled bassinets involving infants primarily younger than three months old. In two of the incidents, infants were reported to have had breathing difficulties after they rolled into the side of their bassinets.
