CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using Jocute Baby Loungers Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Suffocation and Fall Hazards; Violations of the Mandatory[...]

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using Jocute baby loungers. The loungers violate the mandatory standard for Infant Sleep Products. The sides are too low to contain an infant. The sleeping pad is too thick, posing a suffocation hazard. The enclosed openings at the foot of the loungers are wider than allowed, posing a fall hazard and an entrapment hazard to infants. Also, the baby loungers do not have a stand, posing a fall hazard if used on elevated surfaces. These violations create an unsafe sleeping environment for infants and can cause death or serious injury to infants.

CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller, Ningbobeiyangmaoyiyouxiangongsi, doing business as Jocute, of China. Jocute has not agreed to recall these loungers or offer a remedy to consumers.

About 40,000 baby loungers were sold online on Amazon by Jocute from January 2024 through July 2025 for between $29 and $76. The loungers may have also been sold by various third-party sellers and on other websites.

The loungers include a foam sleeping pad and padded bumpers with a cloth cover. The loungers were sold in the following prints and colors/color combinations: big elephant, blue, deer, elephant, elephant1, elephant3, flower, gray/white, gray leaves, heart, mamibaby-leaves, pink deer, sheep, white, little leaves, multicolor and white. The loungers have a buckle clasp in one end. "Jocute" and model number "GT37" are printed on a label stitched on the inside of the baby lounger's cover.

CPSC urges consumers to stop using all Jocute baby loungers. Further, CPSC continues to advisefirms to stop sale of non-compliant infant sleep products regardless of the date of manufacture.

These products were manufactured in China.

CPSC urges consumers to immediately stop using the baby loungers, remove the foam padding, and cut the cover in half, and dispose of the cover and padding.

Parents and caregivers are reminded:

• The best place for an infant to sleep is on a firm, flat surface in a crib, bassinet or play yard.
• Use a fitted sheet only and never add blankets, pillows, padded crib bumpers, or other items to an infant's sleeping environment.
• Infants should always be placed to sleep on their back. Infants who fall asleep in an inclined or upright position should be moved to a safe sleep environment with a firm, flat surface such as a crib, bassinet or play yard.
