Below is a list of June recalls from the following federal agencies: the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Food and Drug Administration, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
June Recalls
Medtech Products recalled five lots of Little Remedies Honey Cough Syrup due to the presence of Bacillus cereus and loss of shelf-stability. Bacillus cereus can cause food-borne illness that can result in nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps, and diarrhea.
ZRWD recalled its infant swings due to suffocation hazards. The swings posed a deadly suffocation risk because they were marketed for infant sleep and they have an incline greater than 10 degrees. Additionally, the remote control for the swing contains a lithium coin battery, which if ingested can cause serious injuries, chemical burns, and death.
Shantou Haochencheng hobby toy hammer ball sets sold on Amazon were recalled due to choking hazards. The toy sets contain small balls that violate regulations for toys intended for children under three years of age.
Zhorange recalled its portable bassinets due to the risk of serious injury or death from a fall. The bassinets violate federal safety standards for infant sleep products because the sides are too low to contain the infant and the portable bassinets do not have a stand, which poses a fall hazard.
Ravmix recalled its portable hook-on chairs sold on Amazon due to risks of serious injury or death from falling. The chair poses a deadly fall hazard because the crotch restraint can be removed without the use of a tool and infants can fall through an opening.
Funlio recalled its convertible high chairs due to risks of serious injury or death from falling or being entrapped. The chairs pose a deadly entrapment hazard because the opening between the seat and tray is large enough that a child can become entrapped in it. Additionally, the child restraint system can fail, posing a fall hazard.
Bugaboo North America recalled its giraffe high chairs because they pose a fall hazard and risk of serious injury or death to babies. The legs of the chair can detach from the frame if the screws connecting the legs are not properly tightened during assembly.
Endless Pools recalled its manual retractable pool covers due to drowning and entrapment hazards. The pool covers can leave a gap of more than 4.5 inches between the cover roller and the pool surface, when installed incorrectly. Improper installation can result in the covers not conforming to the voluntary industry standard, posing drawing and entrapment hazards to children.
YaFiti recalled its white dressers due to tip-over and entrapment risks. The dressers are unstable if they are not anchored to the wall and can result in injuries or death to children.
TADAKAZU recalled its baby loungers because its sides are shorter than the minimum side height limit to secure infants, the sleeping pad’s thickness exceeds the maximum limit, and an infant could fall out of an enclosed opening at the foot of the lounger or become entrapped.
iHerb recalled bottles and blister packs of California Gold Nutrition Iron Supplements because they failed to meet federal standards for child-resistant packaging. The supplements contain iron but are not in child-resistant packaging, posing a risk of poisoning if swallowed by young children.
LED fireplace lanterns have been recalled because they violate mandatory federal standards for consumer products containing button cell or coin batteries. The lithium coin battery can be accessed easily by children, posing an ingestion hazard.
Boyro recalled baby walkers because they violate the federal safety standard for infant walkers. The walkers can fit through a standard doorway and fail to stop at the edge of a step as required, posing a risk of serious injury or death due to a fall hazard.
Peg Perego recalled its Tatamia 3-in-1 recliners, swings, and high chairs due to risk of suffocation. The products have an incline angle greater than 10 degrees.
