    My 13-month-old son got struck in the VTech Smart Shots Sports Centre. His head and body went through the side into their hard plastic net, and he is not able to come out. We spent 5 minutes bringing him out. He cried, panicked, and puked after the incident, but was not hurt otherwise.

    The product, in the report: V tech smart shots sports center, color is red and black

    My 13 month old son was playing with his v-tech smart shots sports center, when he crawled under to get the ball, he sat up early and his head went right into the plastic basketball hoop, he wiggled to try to get himself out, but only made his head to further into the hoop and became stuck. He started screaming and I ran to help him, i tried to pick up the whole toy but his head was to stuck, I then had to pry the hoop off of his head slowly to make sure it didn’t pull his head too hard. I posted my concerns on a [REDACTED] mom page warning other moms of the dangers, where I found multiple other mothers telling me they have also had their child get their head stuck in this same exact toy. This is a danger and should be fixed. The hoop should either be slightly larger so a head can’t get stuck, or slightly smaller so a head can’t fit in there in the 1st place.
