Hazard

A child's head could get entrapped in the canopy's window openings, posing entrapment and strangulation hazards.

Incidents & injuries

The firm has received two reports of a child's head becoming caught in the canopy's window openings. No injuries have been reported.

Product description

The recalled canopies involve the "Home Sweet Playhome" model made of 100% cotton gingham fabric draped from a bamboo hoop which is suspended from the ceiling to create a cylindrical play space measuring 36 inches wide and 9 feet tall.

"The Land of Nod" is printed on a woven label on the canopy.
