The short answer

Every line below is in CPSC’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

When the 3-in-1 Cradle Swing detachable seat is used as a carrier, the locks for the handle can unexpectedly release, causing the seat to flip forward. When this happens, infants can fall to the ground and suffer serious injuries. The nylon bands that hold the surface level of the Bounce ‘n Play Activity Dome can detach, allowing the surface to tilt. This can cause an infant to slide down against one end and be trapped in a position, bsing difficult to breathe, posing a suffocation hazard.
