Carlson Cradle Swings
CPSC Recall #92115 — July 22, 1992
Product
Carlson Cradle Swings
Description
WASHINGTON, DC -- There is a possible suffocation risk for the hanger frame portion of Carlson Children's Products, Oswego, IL, "Swing 'N Cradle" and "Swivel 'N Snooze" cradle swings. Neither Carlson nor the Commission has received any reports of injury involving Carlson cradle swings. There are some similarities to another manufacturer's cradle swing in which two infants reportedly suffocated. Approximately 7,500 Carlson cradle swings were sold nationwide between December 1991 and March 1992. Swing seats with the new hanger frame will recline, but will provide a 19-degree elevation of the baby's head, even when the seat back is reclined into a cradle position. Carlson swings produced since April 1992 cannot be adjusted to a completely flat position and are not involved in this recall.
