Hospital admission Made Nov 21, 2012, sent to the company Dec 13, 2012, published by CPSC Jan 8, 2013
The product, in the report: Hasbro Playskool Sit ‘N Spin. Children are supposed to sit on it and turn the wheel to spin around. Model: Classic SIT’N SPIN Model Item Number: 34848. The only other marking on the toy is etched on the bottom with no identifer as to what it is: ‘11041’
My 27-month old child has a Hasbro Playskool Sit ‘N Spin toy which is rated by Hasbro for 18 months+. My child tried to step on the toy (bottom wheel on the floor that spins) and lost balance when the wheel spun. My child fell backwards and to the side and broke the femur in the right leg in half because the spinning motion twisted the leg. Now my child is in a full body cast from the chest down (including both legs and feet to stabilize the pelvis) for approximately 5-6 weeks. Hospital admission (including EMT transfer via ambulance to a pediatric hospital) and anethesia were required to treat the injury. Note that the toy was at ground level (not elevated on anything) and the fall was on carpeting.
I see many, many comments from product owners online (e.g. eopinions.com) where it is stated that this toy is dangerous, the age rating is too low and that their children have fallen off from stepping on it as my child did.
Children this young do not understand how to safely use the toy, and it should be rated much higher than 18 months (at least 3 years in my opinion). I followed the recommended age set by the manufacturer not realizing how dangerous this toy is. Had I known, I never would have purchased it.
The police investigated and confiscated the toy. I no longer have it in my possession.
