Infantino SlingRider Recall
March 23, 2007 at 4:04 pm

infantino.jpgInfantino has issued a recall of their popular SlingRider baby carrier sold nationwide at Target, Babies ‘R Us, etc., because, whoops, it does the exact opposite of what a sling is supposed to do — hold the baby. It seems the plastic slider on the strap has a tendency to break, and 10 reports have already been filed, with 8 of the kids falling out of the carrier. One of the babies even fractured their skull due to the fall. I could make some sort of Britney Spears joke here, but I don’t want to drive the poor girl back into rehab.

The affected models are ones sold between July 24, 2006 and February 23, 2007 and are marked “Made in China”. Visit Infantino’s website for full details and return information.
