  • Kids and Koalas Baby Walkers Recalled

     

    Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/4-WniVYZog4

     

    These walkers, model number X002,  fail to meet federal safety standards.  They fit through a standard door but have no safeguards that enable them to stop at the edge of a stair.  They also have leg openings large enough to entrap a child’s head at the neck.  These deficiencies can lead to serious injuries, falls, or death.

     

    Do not allow your baby to use this device.   Dismantle it and dispose of it safely.  This item was exclusively sold by Amazon.  Contact Amazon for a refund.
