Warning: Stop using this crib bumper sold on Amazon

Officials are sounding the alarm on a banned crib bumper sold on Amazon for more than a year.

The braided crib bumper from seller XHJRI-US, of China, violates the Safe Sleep For Babies Act. However, the Consumer Product Safety Commission said it was sold on Amazon.com from April 2022 through November 2023.

The crib bumpers have no markings or labels and are made from four strands braided into one long length of fabric. The crib bumpers come in eight different sizes: 39.3 inch, 78.7 inch, 118 inch, 124 inch, 128 inch, 157 inch, 160 inch or 196 inch.

If you have one of these, stop using it immediately, undo the braid, cut up the strands and dispose of the bumpers.

The manufacturer has not agreed to a recall so there is no refund option.
