Fisher-Price is recalling all 21 models of its Snuga infant swings, sold at Amazon, Toys R Us, Walmart/Sam's Club and Target from 2010 to 2024. If the swing is used for sleep or bedding is added, the headrest and body support insert on the seat pad can increase the risk of suffocation; five deaths have been reported.

What to do

Consumers should immediately remove both the headrest (by cutting the tether) and the body support insert from the seat pad before continuing to use the swing. Fisher-Price will provide a $25 refund to consumers who remove and destroy the headrest and body support insert. Instructions can be found at www.service.mattel.com.
