Product Safety Warning Details
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using Joyful Journeys baby loungers immediately. The baby loungers violate the mandatory safety standard for infant sleep products. The sides are too low to contain an infant and the enclosed openings at the foot of the loungers are wider than allowed, posing serious risks of fall and entrapment hazards to infants. In addition, the baby loungers do not have a stand, posing a fall hazard if used on elevated surfaces. These violations create an unsafe sleeping environment and can cause death or serious injury to infants.
CPSC urges consumers to stop using the baby loungers immediately and dispose of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous baby loungers.
CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the retailer, Sarnia Sales LLC, doing business as Joyful Journeys, of Issaquah, Washington. Joyful Journeys previously agreed to recall these hazardous baby loungers but is now out of business and unable to offer refunds to consumers.
Parents and caregivers are reminded:
- The best place for an infant to sleep is on a firm, flat surface in a crib, bassinet or play yard.
- Use a fitted sheet only and never add blankets, pillows, padded crib bumpers, or other items to an infant’s sleeping environment.
- Infants should always be placed to sleep on their back. Infants who fall asleep in an inclined or upright position should be moved to a safe sleep environment with a firm, flat surface such as a crib, bassinet or play yard.
The Joyful Journeys baby loungers are made of a foam sleeping pad and padded bumpers with a cloth cover. The baby loungers zip up into a bag with a strap at the top. The baby loungers were sold in the following styles: green avocado, blue dinosaur, blue lambs, blue zoo animals, green minky, neutral elephants, pink zoo animals, and white minky. “Joyful Journeys” can be found on a tag stitched on the outside of the lounger cover and on a label stitched directly onto the back of the lounger.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
