Baby Hammock Metal Stands

Name of Product: Infant and Toddler Hammock Metal Stands

Units: About 6

Manufacturer: MamaLittleHelper LLC, of Frisco, Texas

Hazard: The C-shaped metal stand can break where the curved arm attaches to the leg of the metal frame, posing a fall hazard to an infant in the hammock.

Description: The baby hammock hangs from the recalled metal C-shaped stand which is about five feet tall and is silver-colored. The metal C-shaped stands were sent to the six consumers with hammock model numbers 1010 and 1020 instead of the original metal frame advertised with the hammock.

Sold exclusively: Online at www.mamalittlehelper.com from December 2009 through February 2010 for about $100 with the hammock.

Remedy: Parents and caregivers should immediately stop using the hammock stands and find an alternate, safe sleeping environment for their baby. Contact MamaLittleHelper to receive a free metal hammock stand in exchange for the recalled C-shaped metal stand. MamaLittleHelper is directly contacting the six consumers who received the C-shaped metal stands.
