Description
May 26, 1995 Release # 95-123 WASHINGTON, D.C.- CPSC, Torpedo, Inc. of South Paris, Maine is voluntarily recalling certain baby flotation devices known as "The Dolphin Baby Float." A child sitting in the device could drown if water leaks into the hollow center of the float's innertube, causing the device to tip over. CPSC and the firm are aware of 24 non-injury complaints about the product including 11 tipover incidents.Approximately 18,000 dolphin-shaped flotation devices were sold nationwide through catalogs and retail stores from February 1993 through December 1994 for $69.95 to $89.95. They measure about 37 inches from nose to tail, about 28 inches from side fin to side fin, and 9 inches in depth. The white plastic dolphin has a detachable red umbrella and blue nylon seat which can be adjusted for babies from six months to two years. Dolphins manufactured and shipped by Torpedo since January 1995, have reinforced walls which prevent water penetration and, therefore,are not included in this recall.Consumers with affected products should destroy their defective Dolphin Baby Float since the firm - Torpedo - went out of business in 2003. Free replacements are no longer…
