This is from 2 years ago. It doesn't say what about them is dangerous.

Does anyone know?

Aren't some things that recalled still fully usable if the owner makes
a
change or two? If so, it would help to know what the problem is.

The picture isn't good enough for me to guess what the problem is
here.

Did you read the text?

I skimmed it. My bad.

"five infant fatalities have occurred in the Kids II Rocking Sleepers,
after the infants rolled from their back to their stomach while
unrestrained, or under other circumstances"

Can't babies normally roll over from back to side?

"At three or four months of age babies are able to roll over by
themselves; this means they could tip the bassinet over, so for safety
they must use an infant bed or toddler bed instead. "


Do some bassinets have straps to tie them down?


This is a DIY group. The universal fix for what ails things is duct
tape.
Show 'em the safety recall and offer to throw in a roll of duct tape if
they insist
on selling it.


The kid whose life you possibly save might be the one caring for you in
old age.


More likely they will ship you off to a nursing home.
