Combi 3-in-1 Activity Walker!

There is not a recall, but piece's of the seat (on mine) break off! I called and they are sending a replacement seat cover that attaches better to the walker (they sounded like they have had this problem before!).

This is what happened to mine:

Here is the piece that broke off:

And here is a piece thats still attached:

If you have a similar one - keep an eye on it, or call Combi and see if you can get a replacement just in case!

Consumers Warned About Risk Of Cryptosporidium Illness From Baby's Bliss Gripe Water

Quoting snootygirl:“ RECALL!!! for the Fisher Price Rainforest Swing (not the bouncer) is being recalled right now i saw the recall at walmart last week”

I almost bought thatfor a friend. I'm so glad i didn't!

Also, i just bought the Graco jumpster for my daughter. Well first of all it took 3 tries for me to attach the bottom because they kept coming undone. Then i finally got them all in and punched the bottom like the manual says. I put a floor pillow under her and put her in. What happens, she jumped one time and the bottom fell out. I'm so glad i put that pillow under her. I t hasn't been recalled but i certainly complained and it should be!
