«These types of incidents are heartbreaking, acting CPSC Chairman Robert S. Adler said in the release. «Since suffocation can happen so quickly, these Boppy lounger products are simply too risky to remain on the market.

The loungers, sold in stores from January 2004 to September 2021, were distributed in the U.S. and Canada by retailers including Amazon, Pottery Barn Kids, Target and Walmart.

Parents should stop using the loungers immediately and contact Boppy for a full refund, the CPSC said.
