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?
Yes. And they occasionally suffocate when they roll onto their front.
"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?
No idea. I did read that the safest position is on a surface with no more
than 10 degrees of slope.
