Miracle Baby Lounger Lawsuit Lawyers
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued a critical warning to parents and caregivers who have purchased Miracle Baby Loungers from Amazon. These products, intended for infants and newborns, have been identified as unsafe and non-compliant with federal safety standards. The CPSC’s evaluation revealed that the design of these baby loungers, combined with inadequate labeling, presents significant risks of suffocation and falls for infants using them.
The CPSC, responsible for establishing safety standards for infant sleep products, strongly advises consumers who own these loungers to cease their use and dispose of them immediately. Although direct communication with affected customers is underway and measures are being taken to address the issue with the seller, these products are reportedly no longer available on the brand’s Amazon storefront.
Particular concerns raised by the CPSC include the absence of a built-in stand in the design of the baby loungers, which contributes to an unsafe sleeping environment. This flaw increases the likelihood of suffocation or falling hazards. Furthermore, the products and their packaging lack essential markings and information, such as the manufacturing date and safe usage instructions.
The loungers are exclusively sold on Amazon by Yichang Lanqier Garment Co. Ltd., operating under the name Miracle Baby. Despite the CPSC issuing a Notice of Violation to the seller, the company has not agreed to a formal recall or provided solutions to customers. Instead, the CPSC plans to send notices to individuals who purchased the unsafe products.
Regarding disposal, the CPSC informs that these loungers were sold between June and November 2022, ranging from $30 to $50. The products, identifiable by a “Miracle Baby” tag and available in various fabric prints, should be destroyed by unzipping the cover, cutting up the fabric, sleeping pad, and side bumpers, and then disposing of the pieces in a trash receptacle. Consumers are also encouraged to report any incidents or unsafe situations related to these products at www.SaferProducts.gov.
Additionally, the CPSC has taken this opportunity to remind the public of safe sleep practices for infants. They emphasize the importance of using a firm, flat surface in a crib, bassinet, or play yard, avoiding adding blankets, pillows, padded crib bumpers, or other items, and always placing infants on their backs to sleep. If an infant falls asleep in an inclined or upright position, they should be moved to a safer environment with a firm, flat surface. This advisory aims to promote the well-being and safety of infants, aligning with the CPSC’s commitment to consumer safety.
In the wake of the safety concerns surrounding Miracle Baby Loungers, parents or guardians who have experienced harm or injury due to these products may have grounds for legal action. A product liability lawsuit could be a viable route in this situation, allowing victims to seek compensation for any harm caused by these unsafe products.
A product liability lawsuit in this context would be based on the argument that the Miracle Baby Loungers, sold on Amazon, were defective and failed to meet the safety standards set by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Filing such a lawsuit involves several critical steps, where a skilled attorney’s expertise is indispensable. Firstly, the attorney can help in proving that the product’s defect directly caused the injury or death. This may involve gathering evidence such as medical records, expert opinions on the product’s design and safety standards, and documentation of the CPSC’s findings and warnings.
An attorney’s role is crucial throughout the lawsuit process. They provide:
They also assist in identifying potential defendants, which could include the manufacturer, the distributor, or the retailer.

In cases of injury related to the Miracle Baby Loungers, victims could be entitled to significant damages, especially considering the severe implications of infant injuries. These damages not only cover immediate medical costs but also any long-term care or therapy that might be required.
