Amazon Recalls Children’s Items Nationwide Due to Fatality Risks
Recently, a major recall was issued for children’s play yards sold on Amazon. This decision was made by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) due to serious safety concerns involving suffocation and entrapment hazards. The items were manufactured by Anna Queen in China and fail to meet mandatory safety standards.
Details of the Recall
The recalled play yards were available for purchase on Amazon starting in March 2025, with a retail price of approximately $100. According to the CPSC, these products pose a risk of entrapment, where infants could become stuck underneath the mattress or wedged between the play yard’s sides and the mattress.
Product Specifications
- Manufacturer: Anna Queen
- Model Number: P700
- Production Date: March 2025
- Color and Design: Black fabric sides with gray mesh panels; white top rails featuring a multi-colored bear print
Approximately 70 units of the play yards were sold on Amazon before the recall. So far, no injuries or incidents have been reported linked to these products.
Consumer Instructions
Consumers who possess these recalled play yards are urged to stop using them immediately. The CPSC advises disassembling the fabric cover from the play yard frame and cutting up the cover and mattress pad. A photo of the destroyed play yard should then be emailed to the retailer to facilitate a full refund.
This recall highlights the importance of adhering to safety standards to prevent potential hazards for infants. Parents and caregivers must remain vigilant and take necessary precautions with their children’s products.
