May 15, 2025: CPSC Warns Consumers to Stop Using Queerick Infant Swings
CPSC told consumers to stop using Queerick Infant Swings immediately because of a suffocation hazard. It issued Product Safety Warning No. 25-277 on May 15, 2025 [1]. CPSC also issued a Notice of Violation to the seller, Power Transform, of China. CPSC says the swings create an unsafe sleeping environment for infants and can cause death or serious injury to infants.Which Queerick Infant Swings Are Affected?

Why Were the Queerick Infant Swings Recalled?
The Queerick Infant Swings were not recalled, but CPSC issued a warning because it says they violate federal safety rules. The statements below come from CPSC’s Notice of Violation, and no court has ruled. CPSC says the swings were marketed for infant sleep and have an incline angle greater than 10 degrees. It says that violates the Safe Sleep for Babies Act and the Infant Sleep Products Rule. CPSC also says the swings fail mandatory warning requirements for infant swings. It says the remote control has a lithium coin battery, and the products lack the warning labels Reese’s Law requires. The Safe Sleep for Babies Act was signed into law on May 16, 2022. Consumer Reports says the act bans inclined sleepers and crib bumper pads [2]. CPSC’s 2021 final rule determined that a flat sleep surface that does not exceed 10 degrees offers infants the safest sleep environment [3].Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses
The CPSC warning states no incident, injury or death figure for the Queerick Infant Swings, so it does not show that the swing caused any harm. It also does not state how many swings were sold. CPSC says swallowed button cell or coin batteries can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns and death. It does not say any child swallowed one from the remote. It points consumers to SaferProducts.gov to report an incident.Were you or a family member hurt by this product?
