The Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued another warning about serious safety risks associated with the Bumbo Baby Seat. The CPSC reports more than 45 babies have been injured since the molded rubber seat was placed back on the market after a recent product recall. Stressing that the Bumbo seat should only be placed on the ground and never on any elevated surface, the CPSC also reports that serious skull fractures have occurred even when the seat is used at ground level. "The Bumbo Baby Seat is simply a dangerous product, even when used the way Bumbo says it should be used," says Liz Cunningham of Dallas-based Rose Walker, who represents families of children injured in Bumbo seats. "The likelihood that even the most responsible caregivers will unknowingly misuse this product is so great that it should be permanently taken off the market immediately."
