BCI Burke Recalls Playground Merry-Go-Rounds Due to Crush Hazard

25080 · Recalled 2024-12-26 · CPSC page

Description

This recall involves the Inclusive Orbit, a spinning play component, similar to a merry-go-round, for playgrounds. The product has three handrails and a seat, and it is designed for a capacity of six children. The platform surface is flush with the ground surrounding it. Recalled model numbers include 560-0042 or 560-0051. Owners of the equipment can contact BCI Burke to determine which unit they have.

Hazards

The space between the rotating platform and the stationary outer rim can leave a gap that narrows too much, posing a crushing hazard to children.

Reported injuries

The firm has received reports of two incidents of fingers getting trapped in the gap between the rotating platform and the outer rim, resulting in two finger crushing injuries.

Remedy

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled merry-go-rounds and contact the owner of the equipment, such as park director or school principal, to determine if equipment has been inspected and repaired. Contact BCI Burke to schedule an inspection and free onsite repair.
