Infants rolled from their back to their stomach while unrestrained, or under other circumstances, in the Kids II Rocker Sleepers, and that has prompted a big recall.

Consumers should call Kids II toll-free at (866) 869-7954 or visit www.kids2.com and click on “IMPORTANT RECALL INFORMATION” to find out more. Full refunds will be given.

The recall affects 694,000 units.

The U.S. Consumer Product and Safety Commission has provided a list of all recalled sleepers; see it here.

"Since the 2012 product introduction, five infant fatalities have occurred in the Kids II Rocking Sleepers, after the infants rolled from their back to their stomach while unrestrained, or under other circumstances," the recall states.

The sleepers have been sold at all major retailers, including Target, Walmart, Toys R Us and online from March 2012 through April 26, 2019 for approximately $40-$80.
