Michael Trunk, a Philadelphia-based attorney who represents two families whose infants died in Boppy loungers — a 4-day-old girl and a 1-week-old boy — said the need for The Boppy Company to reissue its recall showed it was not effective the first time. The CPSC also sent a letter Tuesday urging Facebook’s parent company, Meta, to take stronger action to stop illegal secondhand sales of the Boppy lounger on Facebook Marketplace. The agency called it a “particularly egregious example” of a recalled product’s being unlawfully sold, despiteOver the past year, the CPSC has asked Meta to remove listings for Boppy loungers about a thousand times per month on average, the letter said.
Loungers come in various shapes and sizes. Boppy loungers are round, with a shallow indentation in the middle; they are distinct from the company’s popular U-shaped nursing pillow. Other companies make loungers with rectangular or oval pads surrounded by raised perimeters.that included multiple brands of loungers and other infant pillow products found that many babies who died suffocated after having rolled over or turned their faces against loungers’ fabric-covered surfaces.
