Eddie Bauer Rocking Wood Bassinets Recall

About 97,000 Eddie Bauer brand rocking wood bassinets from Dorel Juvenile Group are recalled because the bottom locking assembly can fail to lock if a spring is installed incorrectly. This could allow the bassinet to tilt, and an infant inside can roll against the side of the bassinet, which poses a suffocation hazard.

Seventeen incidents have been reported where the bassinet tilted to the side. Two incidents resulted in reports of babies having breathing difficulties after rolling into the side of the bassinet.

To determine if your bassinet is recalled, you'll need to locate a model number label on the underside of the mattress, on top of the mattress support, or on the care label. Models 10632, 10639, 10832, 10835, 10839 and BT021 are included in the recall.

If you own one of these recalled bassinets, you should stop using it immediately. Call Dorel Juvenile Group at 877-416-0165 to receive a repair kit.
