The CPSC issued a warning, and it was in reference to a few tragic accidents that occured over the past two decades. Those slings were quickly recalled and taken off the market.
As a retailer of baby carriers, slings and wraps, and a father who
uses many different types at home, I know first hand how important the
safety of these products is. I also know it is a top priority of all
the manufactures in the industry, and an enormous amount of time is
spent ensuring it stays that way.
Most baby carrier products come with precise instructions, as well as
an 800 support number if mothers/fathers have any questions. If worn
correctly, 99% of the baby carriers, slings and wraps on the market
are completely safe to use.
We welcome future regulation of the industry to ensure the slings, carriers and wraps being produced are safe for our family, friends, clients and the public to use.
