Yayita Baby Hammocks Recalled

Hammocks Can Flip, Causing Injury and Strangulation

Following a report of a seven-month old boy becoming entrapped by a Yayita Baby Hammock after it had flipped, the US distributor, Flaghouse Inc, is recalling the product.

The recalled baby hammock is cream-colored canvas and hangs from a wooden pole. The hammock measures about 29 x 43 inches. It has three restraint straps with red buckles and is attached to a cushioned pad for the infant. A mounting fixture, also called a fixing set, is sold with the hammock. "La Siesta" is printed on a tag located below the restraint straps. Model number YABP-1 is printed on a white tag sewn into the hammock's side seam.

The hammocks were sold through FlagHouse Inc.'s catalog, and online at www.flaghouse.com, and at BJ Wholesale Club's Web site, www.bjs.com, from September 2007 through August 2008 for about $90.
