The swing also fails to meet “mandatory warning requirements regarding sleep under the swing standard” despite the product being designed for infant sleep, according to the agency.
A free repair kit will be offered to all Jool Baby customers impacted by the recall, which is said to have impacted around 63,000 swings.
Jool Baby said that customers can continue to use the recalled swing to help your baby do anything but sleep.
“If your baby falls asleep while in the swing, remove baby and place on a firm, flat surface such as a crib or bassinet. Using the Nova Swing or any product with an angle above 10 degrees is not safe for sleep,” the company said.
