CPSC, Kids II Inc. Announce Recall of Doorway Baby Jumpers
05198 · Recalled 2005-06-16 · CPSC page
Description
The recalled baby jumpers have a blue canvas seat, yellow straps, and a blue plastic clamp that attaches to an interior door frame. The recalled unit is the Bright Starts Jammin' Jumper with model number 6607, which can be found on a white warning label on the canvas seat. The words "Bright Starts" are printed on the plastic housing that contains the clamp. The jumper was sold with a play mat that makes sounds when the child jumps on it.
Hazards
A cap on the wire supports inside the soft gym's upright arms can detach, allowing the wire to poke through the fabric. This poses a laceration and puncture hazard to babies.
Reported injuries
Kids II has received 49 reports of the clamp breaking, with 12 reported injuries, including a possible mild concussion, skinned knee, cut lips, and bumps and bruises.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the product immediately and disable the jumper by cutting a one-inch portion of the yellow strap just below the clamp. To receive a free replacement product, consumers should cut out the white warning label from the canvas seat and mail the label and the one-inch portion of the yellow strap to Kids II at 555 North Point Center East, Suite 600, Alpharetta, GA 30022.
