RECALLED: Baby Walkers from Suntech Enterprises | Virginia Product Recall Attorney
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Suntech Enterprises announce the recall of about 8,400 baby walkers.
This is a voluntary recall following new rules issued by the CPSC in May 2010. The rule, effective December 21, 2010, states that walkers will be required to either have features, like a gripping mechanism, to stop the walker at the top of stairs, or be too wide to fit through a standard doorway. These walkers do neither.
The CPSC has not received any reports of injury or incident due to these walkers.
The walkers were sold in stores between January 2007 and December 2009. They are marked with item numbers WK110 or WK112 on the side of packaging.
If you have one of these walkers, please contact either Suntech or the Consumer Product Safety Commission for a full refund.

This is the latest in the recent wave of children’s product recalls. Please note that even though there have been no reported injuries and this is a preemptive recall, it is now illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product. If you’ve got this sitting around unused somewhere, you should remove it from your garage sale pile and call Suntech for a refund instead.
