Recalled baby walkers by My Way Corp.

Another baby product recall today involves baby walkers made by My Way Corp.


The CPSC says the 800 or so walkers are being recalled because they "violate the baby walker voluntary standard and can fit through a standard doorway and are not designed to stop at the edge of a step. Babies using these walkers can be seriously injured or killed." No injuries have been reported.

Details from the CPSC:

  • The recalled walkers were sold for babies 6 months and older.
  • The walkers were sold in the following colors: pink, red, green, blue, and ivory.
  • The walkers have an activity tray with a steering wheel and other toys.
  • “My Way Corp” is printed on a sticker on the front of the walker.
  • Sold at: Independent discount stores in Puerto Rico from November 2004 through March 2008 for between $18 and $25.

The CPSC says you should stop using this walker immediately and return it to the store where you bought it for a full refund.

The American Academy of Pediatrics has been asking the government to ban all baby walkers for years. You can read more about that HERE.

 

For more info: Contact My Way Corp. collect at (787) 758-5848 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday.
