Washington, DC – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has warned consumers to immediately stop using Miracle Baby Loungers because they violate federal infant sleep product safety regulations and pose a choking and fall hazard to infants. Specifically, these recliners do not meet the safety requirements of the CPSC's Infant Sleep Products Regulation because they do not have a stand, which creates an unsafe sleeping environment for infants. In addition, reclining chairs do not meet the marking, labeling, and documentation requirements of the regulations. The chaise longue and its packaging are also missing a tracking label that contains certain required information, including the date of manufacture, which is required for children's products, including durable baby or toddler products.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a violation notice to China's Yichang Lanqier Apparel***, which does business as Miracle Baby, but the company has not agreed to recall the recliners or provide remedies to consumers. Consumers who purchase the product will receive this notification directly.
Between June 2022 and November 2022, these recliners were sold on Amazon** for between $30 and $50. CPSC evaluated recliners made with New Bear printed fabrics and found that the company also sells other printed fabric options: Bee, Blue Star, Cat, Deer, Elephant, New Blue Star, New Panda, New Pink Star, Pink Cross, Ocean, Whale, and White Cross. "Miracle Baby" is printed on a label sewn on the outside of the recliner.
While the infant sleep product regulation applies to products manufactured on or after June 23, 2022, the products or packaging of these recliners do not have the required manufacturing date indicated, so the CPSC urges consumers to stop using all Miracle Baby recliners. In addition, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission continues to recommend that companies stop selling non-compliant baby sleep products, regardless of the date of manufacture.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission urges consumers to immediately stop using the Miracle Baby recliner. Pull apart and disassemble the product by cutting the chaise longue cover, sleeping pad and side bumper. Discard debris in bins or textile stations, according to local garbage collection policies.
Parents and caregivers are reminded of:
The best place for babies to sleep is in a crib, bassinet, or a firm, flat surface in a play field.
Use only the fitted sheet, and never add blankets, pillows, padded crib bumpers, or other items to the baby's sleeping environment.
Babies should always be put to sleep on their backs. Infants who fall asleep in an inclined or upright position should be moved to a safe sleeping environment with a firm, flat surface, such as a crib, bassinet, or playing field.
