Baby product manufacturing giants Fisher-Price have issued a recall for
approximately 800 000 'Rock 'N Play' baby recliners after discovering
that use of the popular seat could result in exposure to harmful mold.
Bad for baby’s chest
If
the product is not properly cleaned and dried, mold can develop between
the seat cushion and frame, according to HuffPost. Over 600 of the
seats have already been reported to have developed mold, and 16 infants
have received treatment for related ailments as a result, ranging from
respiratory ailments to coughs and hives, Fisher-Price has reported.
The
recall includes the warning that owners of the seats should check under
the removable cushion for dark spots (grey, brown or black) which would
indicate the presence of mold, and, should this be found, that the
seats should not be used and that Fisher-Price should be contacted for
further information.
