Brand(s)
Summary
Immediately stop using the recalled product and return it to Voltz Toys for a refund.
Affected products
This recall involves Unilove 2-in-1 cradles that were sold in grey (UPC 872106002420) or pink (UPC 872106002413). The cradle has mesh panels on both sides, telescoping feet with wheel locks, and a height adjustment feature of seven levels.
Issue
Health Canada’s sampling and evaluation program has determined that these cradles do not meet the Cribs, Cradles and Bassinets Regulations in Canada. Specifically, the cradles sleep surface provides an incline angle greater than 7 degrees, posing a risk of entrapment and suffocation to the child.
Health Canada reminds parents and caregivers that the safest place for a baby to sleep is on their back on a firm, flat surface intended for sleep.
