Safety Gate Recall Lawsuit Overview
On July 10, 2025, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recalled about 2,200 Dearlomum retractable safety gates sold on Amazon by Signbaby. The gates failed federal safety standards by allowing a child’s torso—due to mesh design—to fit through the low opening, posing a risk of serious injury or death due to entrapment.
Latest Dearlomum Safety Gate Lawsuit Updates
- July 10, 2025 – CPSC announces recall of 2,200 gates due to entrapment hazard from openings under the mesh [1.].
- July 11, 2025 – Signbaby and Amazon contact purchasers, advising disposal/destruction of gates for full refund [2.].
- July 24, 2025 – Lichang E-Commerce, Inc. issued a recall for about 1,400 LIVACTI Retractable Safety Gates which violate the mandatory standard for expansion gates and expandable enclosures because a child’s torso can fit through the opening between the gate and the floor, posing a risk of serious injury or death due to entrapment [3.].
Safety Gate Lawsuit Statistics
- Units recalled: Approximately 2,200 Dearlomum retractable safety gates.
- Reported incidents: No injuries reported yet, but the entrapment hazard is serious.
- Sale period: December 2024–May 2025 via Amazon for $33–$38 per unit.
Design Defect & Hazard Analysis
The gates’ mesh design allowed sufficient space between the floor and mesh bottom for a child’s torso to become trapped. This entrapment hazard violates federal standards for safety gates and enclosures. The defect supports legal claims under negligence, strict liability, design defect, breach of warranty, and failure to warn.
Injuries & Side Effects
- Torso entrapment: Risk of injury or fatal suffocation if a child becomes trapped.
- Bruising or cuts: From forced removal or struggling.
- Emotional trauma: Anxiety or developmental fear from being entrapped.
