Infant walker sold on Amazon is focus of federal warning

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is warning people to immediately stop using an infant walker that was sold on Amazon.com.

The CPSC says it issued a notice of violation to the seller, All Merchandise of Charlotte, North Carolina because Comfi Baby Infant Walkers pose a risk of falls and entrapment to children.

Officials say the walkers violate federal safety regulations for three reasons:

They can fit through a standard doorway

Are not designed to stop at the edge of stairs

Have leg openings that allow the child to slip down until the child’s head can become entrapped

The infant walkers were sold on Amazon.com from October 2022 through March 2023. They have adjustable height settings. The frames include a gray seat, a gray tray with toy attachments, and a push handle.

“Comfi Baby” is printed on a label on the push handle and on the front of the top frame. The Amazon Standard Identification Number (ASIN) is B0BFJNQSW7.

A label is stitched on the back of the seat with this information: All Merchandise LLC/Comfi Baby, 1313 Clayford Rdg, Charlotte, NC 28215, Batch#RWPBELLA 11-22.

The CPSC is advising parents to throw the walker away. It says there is no chance for a repair since All Merchandise is no longer in business.
