Buying used baby gear? Unsafe and recalled baby items for sale online

Parents shopping for used baby gear could save money, but they may also encounter products that have been recalled or banned. A Consumer Reports investigation found potentially unsafe items across all the online platforms it examined, including drop-side cribs, inclined sleepers, in-bed sleepers and padded crib bumpers. Experts say parents should research recalls and inspect items carefully before buying. They also say online marketplaces should do more to prevent unsafe baby products from being resold. ------------------------------------- Follow Scripps News on other platforms— Join our newsletter at Follow us on Facebook: Follow us on X: F (Source: Scripps News | Region: Global)
