Urgent recall: Why you need to destroy these popular baby loungers immediately
Baby loungers that were sold on Amazon and Walmart for nearly two years are being recalled after the company discovered the product could hurt children.
According to a Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) statement , the Joyful Journey baby loungers violate the mandatory safety standard for infant sleep products.
Specifically, the sides are too low to contain an infant and the enclosed openings at the foot of the loungers are wider than allowed, meaning children can fall out or get trapped.
The commission also states that the baby loungers do not have a stand, posing a fall hazard if used on raised surfaces.
"These violations create an unsafe sleeping environment and can cause death or serious injury to infants," the statement reads.
The recall details say no actual injuries have been reported as of Jan. 12.
In total, 9,300 loungers are being recalled. The products were sold on Amazon and at Walmart between December 2023 through October 2025 for anywhere from $40 to $60.
The loungers are made of a foam sleeping pad and padded bumpers with a cloth cover. They also zip up into a bag with a strap at the top.
The recalled loungers were sold in green avocado, blue dinosaur, blue lambs, blue zoo animals, green minky, neutral elephants, pink zoo animals and white minky, the CPSC said.
The "Joyful Journeys" tag is stitched on the outside of the lounger cover and on a label located directly onto the back of the lounger.
Customers are urged to immediately stop using the baby loungers and contact Joyful Journeys for a full refund.
In order to obtain the refund, customers must first remove the foam and pads from the baby lounger's cover and cut the cover, foam and pad in half.
Then they should email photos of the destroyed pieces to joyfuljourneysrecalls@myjoyfuljourneys.com.
