January 3, 1995 Release # 95-056 WASHINGTON, D.C. - CPSC, Baby Trend Inc. of Pomona, Calif., is voluntarily recalling all portable crib/playpens sold under the brand names, Home and Roam and Baby Express. CPSC determined that the crib/playpens can collapse if the products are not completely locked into place. There have been two deaths and two more reports of babies found not breathing (who were revived) associated with these products.The crib/playpen can appear to be set up properly even if the top rails are not fully locked. If the crib/playpen is not set up so that each top rail is securely locked in position, a baby can be caught by the neck and strangle (see illustration). The crib/playpens, which are available in a variety of colors and fabrics, come in three sizes - 40 inches by 40 inches, 40 inches by 28 inches, and 31 inches by 41 inches. The words "Home and Roam" or "Baby Express" and "Baby Trend" appear on two of the four top rails. About 100,000 crib/playpens, priced from $60 to $130, were sold nationwide from 1992 to 1994 by several different retailers, including Price Costco and Kmart.Baby Trend is recalling ALL Home and Roam and Baby Express crib/playpens, regardless of the purchase date or warning labels.Consumers should call Baby Trend toll-free at (800) 328-7363 to have their top rail locks replaced free-of-charge.

A 28-year-old Pennsylvania man reportedly turned on the lamp and received a shock that blew out the house circuit breaker.The lamps measure 16 inches tall, come with a white and red striped shade, and have green, red, and yellow painted wooden bases.

January 12, 1995 Release # 95-059 Washington, D.C. CPSC and a group of seven playground equipment manufacturers together have launched an effort to get potentially dangerous, heavy metal and molded plastic "animal" swings removed from playgrounds. The swings, which were installed from 1951 to 1991, were involved in the 1985 death of a 2-year-old in California and the 1994 death of a 6-year-old in Pennsylvania. These children were struck on the head as they walked near the swings.CPSC also has reports of 42 children who suffered head injuries after being struck by these swings. The injuries included skull fractures, concussion and brain damage, serious lacerations and contusions, and one child who lost sight in an eye.About 10,000 of the 30 to 80-pound swings were installed at parks, schools, and daycare centers nationwide. An undetermined number are still in use. The swings, which are made of cast aluminum or molded plastic, are painted to look like horses, zebras, pelicans, ducks, turtles, seals, rockets, and other figures. They were manufactured by BCI Burke, Blue Valley Industries, Game Time, Miracle Recreation Equipment Company, PCA, Playworld Systems, Quality Industries, and a number of companies that are no longer in business. BCI Burke's lightweight "Hobby Horse" swings are not included in this removal effort.The following seven manufacturers of the heavy animal swings are each offering incentive plans to parks, schools and daycare centers to replace the swings: BCI Burke, Fond du Lac, Wis. 800-356-2070 Blue Valley Industries, Mexico, Penn. 717-436-8266 Game Time, Fort Payne, Ala. 800-377-2561 Miracle Recreation Equipment Company, Monett, Mo. 800-523-4202 PCA, St. Louis, Mo. 800-727-8180 Playworld Systems, New Berlin, Penn. 800-233-8404 Quality Industries, Hillsdale, Mich. 800-766-9458 Consumers who know of playgrounds with these animal swings should call their local school boards or park offices and the swing manufacturers for immediate removal of the swings.The National School Supply and Equipment Association (NSSEA) is assisting CPSC and the seven manufacturers in this effort.

December 21, 1994 Release # 95-051 WASHINGTON, D.C. - CPSC, Krups North America Inc. of Closter, N.J., is voluntarily offering stickers and corrected operating instructions for about 1,472,000 model number 963 Espresso/Cappuccino Machines. While these coffee machines were distributed to retail stores nationwide from 1985 through 1992, some of the machines may still be on sale. To date, Krups has received 57 reports of the carafes on the coffee machines shattering, injuring 15 people. Consumers should note that the letters "min" on the filter holder locking mechanism do not refer to the strength of the coffee, but rather to the position of the filter holder. If the filter holder is set far to the left of "min," steam pressure may build up with enough force to cause the holder to fly out of the coffee machine. This can happen when the filter holder is moved while the machine is in operation. If the filter holder falls down, it can hit the glass carafe, causing the glass to shatter. Flying pieces of metal, glass, plastic, coffee grinds and hot coffee can cause serious cuts or burns to people standing nearby.Consumers should rotate the filter holder to the "max" position and call Krups at (800) 526-5377 to receive a sticker to put over the "min max" position and revised instructions on how to properly use the machine. Krups is offering a $5 rebate good for any Krups products to consumers who request the sticker and instructions.Krups espresso/cappuccino machines manufactures after 1992, which are marked "Lock," are not involved in this recall
