The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced a recall of about 700 Macardac Baby Loungers on November 26, 2025. They were sold on Amazon.com for between $30 and $40.
CPSC says the loungers do not meet a mandatory federal standard for infant sleep products. Low sides, wide foot openings and no stand are the stated reasons. The CPSC notice reports no incidents or injuries.
Consumers should immediately stop using the loungers and ask Macardac Products for a full refund. This is a Recall with a Refund remedy. As of September 29, 2026, the notice shows no update, and it is not terminated or expanded.

November 26, 2025: CPSC Announces the Recall
On November 26, 2025, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced recall 26-113, covering about 700 Macardac Baby Loungers sold on Amazon. The CPSC notice names Macardac LLC, dba Macardac Products, of Armenia, as the retailer [1].
CPSC lists the remedy as a refund. The recall notice shows no later update, expansion or termination as of September 29, 2026.
Which Macardac Baby Loungers Are Affected?
The recall covers Macardac Baby Loungers made of a foam sleeping pad and padded bumpers with a cloth cover and a buckle at one end:
- Colors and prints: blue, brown, brown leaves and pink flower
- Identifying mark: “Macardac” is printed on an attached tag on the outside of the cover
- Sale period: June 2024 through October 2025 on Amazon.com
CPSC lists no model numbers, UPCs or lots for this recall, so the tag and the colors are the identifiers it gives.
CPSC lists the Alinux Baby Loungers as a related recall on the same notice page. That separate product has its own Alinux baby lounger recall page.
Why Were the Macardac Baby Loungers Recalled?
The Macardac Baby Loungers were recalled because they violate the mandatory safety standard for Infant Sleep Products. The sides are too low to contain an infant, and the enclosed openings at the foot are wider than allowed.
CPSC says the low sides and wide foot openings pose serious fall and entrapment risks to infants. The loungers also have no stand, which poses a fall hazard if used on elevated surfaces.
The federal rule is 16 CFR Part 1236. It applies to all products marketed or intended to provide a sleeping accommodation for an infant up to 5 months of age. That includes inclined and flat sleep surfaces [2].
Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses
CPSC’s recall notice says no incidents or injuries were reported for the Macardac Baby Loungers. The notice gives no reporting cutoff date and no geography for that statement.
The notice says the violations create an unsafe sleeping environment and can cause death or serious injury. That is a stated risk. It is not a reported outcome.
Reports to a regulator are not proof that a product caused every incident. A lack of reports is not proof that no problem exists.
CPSC published the recall record for recall 26-113 on November 26, 2025, the same day as the recall date.
What Should Consumers Do?
Follow these steps from the CPSC recall notice if you have a Macardac Baby Lounger bought on Amazon:
- Check the outside of the cover for an attached tag that has Macardac printed on it.
- Stop using the recalled baby loungers immediately, and ask Macardac Products about a full refund.
- Remove the foam and pads from the baby lounger’s cover.
- Cut the cover, foam and pad in half.
- Email photos of the destroyed pieces to Macardac Products at macardacrecall@gmail.com to obtain a full refund.
- Report a dangerous product or product-related injury on SaferProducts.gov or through the CPSC hotline.
Legal Options
No class action or filed federal case over the Macardac baby loungers was found in the records checked, including a CourtListener search of federal dockets [3].
The Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML) pending MDL report dated September 1, 2026 lists no baby lounger, infant sleep product or Macardac litigation [4].
A recall does not automatically establish liability or a claim. A claim would depend on an actual injury or loss, which a lawyer can review.
