Product name | Baby hammocks |
Description | The baby hammocks are 6-foot-long, mini-hammocks. They are woven from thin cotton strings with nylon end strings in solid or multi-striped colors. The label attached to the end loop reads, "WOVEN BY HAND AND MADE IN YUCATAN MEXICO." The model number for these hammocks is HA005. |
Problem | Without spreader bars to hold the mini-hammock bed open, the mini-hammocks can suddenly twist around childrens' necks and strangle them. Also, infants sleeping on soft bedding can become wedged in positions in which they cannot breathe. |
