CooCooBaby Baby Lounger Recalled: Stop Using It Now and Here's How to Get Your Refund

If you have a CooCooBaby Baby Lounger in your home, take it out of use right now. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a product safety warning on September 10 for the Classic and Deluxe models of this lounger, and the hazards they've identified are serious ones for the youngest infants.

About 2,355 units were sold through Amazon and the brand's own website between approximately $35 and $70. If you're not sure whether you have this product, check for the CooCooBaby name โ€” it's a foam sleeping pad inside padded bumpers with a cloth cover. The Classic model has a ribbon tie at the foot; the Deluxe has buttons at the foot.

Why It Was Recalled

The recall isn't based on a single design flaw โ€” there are three separate hazards identified in the CPSC warning, and each one violates the federal mandatory standard for Infant Sleep Products.

First, the sides of the lounger are shorter than the minimum required height. That means an infant inside isn't properly secured and could roll or shift out in ways that aren't safe. Second, the sleeping pad is thicker than the maximum allowed, which creates a suffocation risk for infants who aren't yet able to move their heads away from soft surfaces. Third, there's an opening at the foot of the lounger where an infant could fall through or become entrapped.

These aren't edge cases or hypothetical risks. The Infant Sleep Products standard exists because of documented harm patterns with products exactly like this one. The CPSC has not reported injuries or deaths related to this specific product, but that's how recall warnings work โ€” they're issued before harm accumulates, not after.

How to Get Your Refund

The refund process requires you to physically destroy the lounger, which is standard for this type of recall โ€” it ensures the product can't be resold or passed along. Here's what to do:

  1. Stop using the lounger immediately and remove it from anywhere infants sleep or rest.
  2. Cut up both the sides of the baby lounger and the sleeping pad.
  3. Take a photo of the destroyed product.
  4. Email the photo to support@coocoobabyofficial.com.
  5. A full refund will be issued to your original payment method.

If you received this as a gift or can't locate your original payment method, contact CooCooBaby directly through the email above โ€” they may have additional options. The full recall notice is also available at coocoobabyofficial.com/pages/recall-notice and cpsc.gov.

What's Next

If you're in the market for a safe infant lounger replacement, look for products that specifically meet the mandatory Infant Sleep Products standard โ€” this standard was updated in recent years specifically because of infant injury patterns with this category of product. The CPSC maintains a database of recalled and currently compliant products at cpsc.gov. When in doubt, flat firm surfaces like a certified crib mattress with a fitted sheet remain the safest sleep environment for infants per American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines. Families with additional safety questions can contact the CPSC hotline at 1-800-638-2772.
