Baby Slings Recalled

March 2007

Here’s an urgent recall update for parents who use baby slings. Baby products manufacturer, Infantino, has issued a recall for approximately 100,000 of its SlingRider infant carriers. A defective plastic slider may cause the carrier strap to release, sending infants tumbling from the cloth carrier pouch to the ground.

Product item numbers are printed on labels inside of the SlingRider. The following product numbers are affected by the recall:

• 141-210
• 151-210
• 151-528
• 151-534

The carriers are sold through Target, Babies ”R” Us, and other national retail outlets, as well as through catalogs and over the Internet.
