In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Dorel Juvenile Group has recalled about 213,000 play yards sold under the names Safety 1st Disney Care Center™ Play Yard and Eddie Bauer Complete Care Play Yard. The play yards present a risk of suffocation or positional asphyxiation if the one piece metal bars supporting the floorboard of the bassinet attachment come out of the fabric sleeves and create an uneven sleeping surface.
The play yards, which were manufactured in China, were sold at Babies "R" Us, Kmart, Sears, Target and Walmart from January 2007 through October 2009 for between $100 and $130. According to the CPSC, the models included in the recall are 05025, 05026, 05037, 05088 and 05350. The model number is printed on a sticker on one of the support legs underneath the play yard. "Safety 1st" or "Eddie Bauer" are printed near the bottom of the fabric sides of the play yards.
The CPSC says consumers should immediately stop using the bassinet attachment to the play yard and contact Dorel Juvenile Group for a free repair kit including replacement bassinet fabric, bassinet bars and installation instructions. For more information, visit the CPSC website or the Dorel Juvenile Group website.
