Baby Cribs, Pacifiers, and More Recalled

Posted by: Salvatore J. Zambri, Esquire and Catherine Bertram, Esquire

The Consumer Product Safety Commission has recently recalled Zoo pacifiers, manufactured by Healthtex.  According to a report by The State Journal, the pacifiers were recalled "because they failed to meet federal safety standards. The nipples can separate from the base easily and pose a choking hazard."  If you have these pacifiers, you are encouraged to keep them away from your children and contact Healthtex at (866)348-5080.

The Journal also reports that "rails on Simplicity Travel Tender Play Yards can collapse unexpectedly." The sepcific recalled model numbers are 5500DRM, 5500WDS, 5500FEL, 5501FEL, 5502MON, 5520PRO, 5550HAN, 5700MAN, and 5750MIR. "The model number is located on a sticker on one of the legs underneath the play yard", according to the report.
