Taleco Gear Baby Jumpers and Infant Swings Recalled: 41,100 Units, Fall and Strangulation Hazard

If you have a Taleco Gear baby jumper or infant swing, stop using it now. The Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled approximately 41,100 units on August 13, 2026 (recall #26-688) due to fall, impact, and strangulation hazards. These products were sold on Amazon, Walmart, and TalecoGear.com from April 2021 through July 2026, which means they may have been purchased, gifted, or passed along at any point in the last five years.

What to Do

Stop using the product immediately. The remedy is a full refund from Taleco Gear — but there's an important condition: the item must be destroyed, not donated, resold, or given to another family. This is a significant distinction from some other recalls that allow returns. The destruction requirement exists because products with structural hazards of this type can't be safely used by anyone, regardless of the child's age or how careful the parent is. Passing it along to a friend or donating it to a thrift store would put another family at risk.

To request the refund, contact Taleco Gear through the contact information listed on the CPSC recall page. Have the product model number or purchase information available if possible, though CPSC guidance typically allows consumers to submit claims without proof of purchase for recalls at this severity level.

Why This Matters for Holiday Season

This recall was issued in August 2026, which means it's been active for three months — but it may still be circulating in secondhand markets, buy-sell-trade groups, and consignment sales as families prepare for the holiday season. Baby gear is one of the most commonly gifted categories at baby showers and holiday gatherings, and secondhand markets for it are active in Colorado Springs.

Before accepting any baby jumper, infant swing, or similar product as a gift — new or secondhand — it's worth a quick search at cpsc.gov/Recalls. The database is free, searchable by product type and manufacturer, and updated with every new recall. It takes about two minutes and removes the guesswork.

What's Next

If you're shopping for baby gear this holiday season — or receiving hand-me-downs — make cpsc.gov/Recalls your first stop. For the Taleco Gear recall specifically: stop use, contact Taleco Gear for the full refund, and destroy the product rather than passing it on. The CPSC recall page has the full product list, remedy instructions, and contact information. For Colorado Springs families who purchased these products through Amazon or Walmart, those retailers may also have recall support resources on their platforms.
