CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using Girasol Rainbow Love Woven Wrap Sling Carriers Due to Failure to Meet Federal Safety Standard; Fall Hazard

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using Girasol Rainbow Love Woven Wrap sling carriers because they do not comply with the federal safety standard for sling carriers and infants can fall out of them. 

CPSC testing revealed the Girasol Rainbow Love sling carriers fail to meet the federal safety standard for sling carriers, including requirements for structural integrity and occupant retention. Additionally, the instructions contain incomplete warning statements required for the sling carriers. Sling carriers manufactured after January 30, 2018, are subject to the mandatory federal safety standard.

The importer Baby Earthling LLC (d/b/a Wrap Your Baby), of Mountainair, New Mexico, has not agreed to an acceptable recall for the sling carriers.

These sling carriers were sold online at www.wrapyourbaby.com until November 2022 for between $120 and $165. The carriers are made of a woven cotton fabric in a rainbow print that starts with red on one end, then orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and ending with violet on the other end. The sling carriers were in sizes 5 to 9, 2.60 meters to 6 meters (8.5 feet to 19.6 feet) and are intended for infants weighing between 8 and 35 pounds. 

CPSC urges consumers to stop using the Rainbow Love Woven Wrap sling carriers, cut the wraps to prevent future use, and dispose of the product.  Report any incidents involving injury or product defect to CPSC at www.SaferProducts.gov.
