Description

The Playsafe Spinning Quad Merry-Go-Round has four yellow plastic seats and black and silver metal bars.

Hazards

The inner bearing on the merry-go-round can fail, causing the seat assembly to suddenly drop to the ground. This poses a fall hazard to children riding the merry-go-round.

Reported injuries

Pacific Cycle has received one report of an injury involving the merry-go-round, which resulted in a fall and abrasions to a child.

Remedy

Consumers should immediately take the merry-go-round away from children and return it to Toys R Us for a full refund, or contact Pacific Cycle to receive a free retrofit kit.
