Amazon and several third-party vendors issued nationwide recalls for various children's products, including safety gates, crib bumpers, dressers and play yard mattresses.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reported that the products, sold exclusively online on Amazon.com, posed hazards such as suffocation, entrapment and tip-over injuries. Each recall notice urged consumers to stop using the affected items immediately and offered refunds for products that are destroyed and documented with photos. No injuries have been reported from the recalled items.

Why It Matters
Recalls are issued when concerns arise that a product is defective or potentially harmful in some way, such as when testing shows that foods are contaminated with potentially deadly bacteria or have been infected with a foreign object during the manufacturing process.
The recall of multiple child-focused products highlights continued risks associated with unregulated or noncompliant imports sold by third-party vendors on major online platforms. These latest recalls demonstrate that products violating federal standards remain available to U.S. consumers, underlining the importance of regulatory oversight and Amazon's marketplace responsibility.
What To Know
Dearlomum Retractable Safety Gates
About 2,200 Dearlomum Retractable Safety Gates were recalled after being sold on Amazon between December 2024 and May for $33 to $38. The gates, distributed by Signbaby, can entrap a child's torso between the gate and floor, risking injury or death. The product violates federal regulations for children's gate safety. To receive a full refund, consumers must cut and destroy the gate and submit documentation to Signbaby.
These padded crib bumpers violate a federal ban because they can obstruct breathing, posing a risk of serious injury or death to infants from suffocation.

CPSC
AUGNORYE Padded Crib Bumpers
YIXIA recalled about 356 units of AUGNORYE Padded Cushioned Crib Bumpers on July 10. These products were sold from February to May on Amazon for $40 to $45. The CPSC found that the soft bumpers violated the federal ban on padded crib bumpers, presenting a suffocation risk that could create an unsafe sleep environment for infants. Refunds are offered when consumers cut and document destruction of the products.
Braided Crib Bumpers by Haoyunm
About 260 braided crib bumpers, imported by Haoyunm, were recalled for violating the same federal ban as the AUGNORYE product. Sold in various lengths and colors on Amazon from December 2024 to April, the unmarked bumpers are considered suffocation hazards. Customers are required to cut the product in half and provide evidence to receive a refund.
WLIVE Fabric Dressers
Jiangsu Zhi Pai Furniture Manufacturing Co. Ltd. recalled about 6,600 WLIVE Fabric 15-Drawer Dressers, sold for about $110 each between April 2024 and May 2025 on Amazon. The product is unstable and poses tip-over and entrapment risks unless anchored to a wall, violating the federal STURDY Act standard for clothing storage units, according to the CPSC. Refunds are processed after customers submit disposal documentation.
Creekliybear Play Yard Mattresses
Kbabyea recalled 21,500 Creekliybear aftermarket play yard mattresses. These products, sold online on Amazon for $28 to $40 from December 2024 to June, exceed federally mandated thickness requirements. They may not fit standard play yards, presenting a potential fatal entrapment hazard, the CPSC said. Refunds are processed for those providing proof of mattress destruction.
What People Are Saying
Amazon said on its product recall page: "Our Product Safety Team proactively investigates and addresses reported safety complaints and incidents to ensure customer protection from potential product-related safety risks. We closely monitor public recall alert websites and receive notifications from vendors and sellers. Upon discovering a product recall, we immediately halt affected product offerings, and promptly inform both customers and sellers involved about the recall."

Walmart recalls 850,000 water bottles after two customers suffer ‘permanent blindness' from exploding caps
Walmart has recalled 850,000 water bottles after two customers reported blindness after being hit in the face by exploding caps. The Ozark Trail water bottles also caused other injuries, and the Consumer Product Safety Commission said the screw-cap lid on the stainless steel water bottles, which hold 64 ounces, may 'forcefully eject' when opening them after they have been used to hold food or beverages for a period of time. The CPSC has received three reports of customers being hit in the face by the lids, with two people permanently going blind after being struck in the eye. Walmart has sold the bottles nationwide since 2017. They are silver with a black lid with the Ozark Trail logo on the side. CPSC noted that the model number 83-662 appears on the packaging. Customers are urged to stop using the bottles immediately, and they can return them to the nearest Walmart to receive a full refund. The bottles, made in China, cost around $15. The commission describes the hazard saying, 'The lid can forcefully eject, posing serious impact and laceration hazards, when a consumer attempts to open the capped bottles after food, carbonated beverages or perishable beverages, such as juice or milk, are stored inside over time.'

Over 67,000 cases of popular deodorant sold at Walmart, Dollar Tree, and on Amazon recalled
A popular deodorant brand has issued a recall due to a difference in the established manufacturing procedure. Last week, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and A.P. Deauville issued a voluntary recall for over 67,000 cases of Power Stick deodorant due to 'cGMP deviations,' which is a difference in the Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations the FDA oversees. The recall was first prompted last Thursday (July 10) and applies to more than 20,000 cases of the brand's 'power fresh'-scented Power Stick for Her Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant, over 22,400 cases of its 'spring fresh'-scented Power Stick Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant, and more than 23,400 cases of the brand's Power Stick Original Nourishing Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant. The deodorant was available for purchase at Walmart, where customers could purchase a pack of three for $21, and at Dollar Tree, where a pack of 24 deodorants was available for $30. Customers were also able to purchase the deodorant from Amazon. The Independent has reached out to A.P. Deauville for comment. The recall was first prompted July 10 (A.P. Deauville) The affected lot numbers for the Power Stick for Her Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant were: 032026B011 032226B031 051626C241 061526C882 071226D371 071226D381 082526E341 082826E402 The lot numbers for the affected Power Stick Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant included: 031726A991 041226B561 062026C901 062026C911 071026D351 071026D361 071326D391 111626G231 For the Power Stick Original Nourishing Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant, the recalled lot numbers included: 101225D781 032926B281 032826B221 041126B531 062226D011 070626D301 070626D333 111026G051 111326G091 111626G221 A.P. Deauville also produces other personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, lotions, body washes, and facial wipes. None of those products have been affected by the recall. A deodorant recall has affected a popular brand The last two years have seen an alarming and unexplained rise in recalls. In 2024, approximately 300 food recalls were issued, with those recalls being linked to nearly 1,400 illnesses, a Public Interest Research Group report revealed. Out of the 1,400 illnesses, 487 people became sick enough to require hospitalization, and 19 people died. While those numbers are still low when weighed against the entire U.S. population, they are also double the number of hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses in 2023. The most recent food recall was Danone U.S.'s recall of all of its YoCrunch products currently available on the market on Friday, after customers reported plastic pieces in the dome toppers, which hold various sweet treats such as Oreos or M&M's. Sharp-edged plastic pieces could be a choking hazard or pose other risks. The recall does not apply to the yogurt itself, but only to the yogurt topping container. Many lot numbers and expiration dates are involved in the recall, spanning from July 7 through September 4. The full list of affected products can be found here. Solve the daily Crossword

TikTok thinks a weighted vest will change your body. Here's what the science says
If a regular hot girl walk is no longer cutting it, why not add a weighted vest to the mix? While not exactly new, weighted vests are making a strong comeback, especially on TikTok and Instagram, where wellness and fitness creators are touting the benefits of adding a 12-pound vest to your daily strolls. 'It's my weighted vest era,' menopause expert Dr. Mary Claire Haver posted to Instagram. 'Walk as much as you can in a weighted vest and you will be unrecognizable,' one TikTok creator wrote. 'This is my clubbing,' another creator posted. 'The strobe lights are the stars I see while walking 3 miles in 90 degrees with a 30lb weighted vest on.' From the $30 Zelus vest dominating your For You Page (often linked through influencers' Amazon storefronts) to a sleek 20-pound version from Equinox priced at $375, the concept is simple: Adding weight to your walks, runs, or workouts may help boost endurance and stamina. Now fitness and wellness creators are also promoting it as a weight-loss hack, with some claiming they've shed up to 30 pounds just by incorporating daily walks with the vest. But what does the science say? In one frequently cited study, participants wore weighted vests equal to 11% of their body weight for eight hours per day over three weeks and lost an average of 3.5 pounds. Another study had participants wear vests for 10 hours per day and found no significant weight-loss benefits—though many did report sore backs.
