These steel and plastic child safety gates, imported by Yiwu Baili Import and Export, were sold on Amazon.com by several third-party sellers. They violate the federal gate safety standard: a child's torso can fit through openings, the lock may not fully engage, or the gate may not resist being pushed out, posing a risk of serious injury or death from entrapment and falls.

What to do

Consumers should stop using the recalled gates immediately and contact the third-party seller by email for information on how to dispose of the product and submit proof of destruction to obtain a full refund. The third-party sellers and Amazon are contacting all known purchasers directly.

Contact: Third-party seller's email. (Specific email addresses are provided in the table below.)

CPSC's own wording, unchanged.

Hazard

The recalled child safety gates violate the federal safety regulation for expansion gates and expandable enclosures because a child's torso can fit through the opening between the gate slat and side wall, a child's torso can fit through the secondary opening, the locking mechanism does not fully engage and/or the gate does not resist a push-out force. These failures pose a risk of serious injury or death due to entrapment and fall hazards.
