On June 22, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced a recall issued by Infanttech, targeting the batteries within its Zooby video baby monitors.
As per the commission’s findings, the batteries could malfunction, causing overheating and possibly explosion, thereby constituting a fire risk.
“Infanttech has acknowledged three incidents of the baby monitors catching fire,” the recall notice confirmed. So far, no injuries related to this issue have been reported.
The recalled Zooby devices are designed to mimic a giraffe, dog, fox, rabbit, or panda, featuring a battery with the model number HJ554050, batch 2136.
These monitors were retailed online through infanttech.com and Amazon.com, available from January 2022 to May 2023, priced between $130 and $190.
The CPSC recommends that consumers promptly remove the battery from the cuddly camera but can continue to use the Zooby plush camera and monitor while connected to a power source.
Customers who have bought the product are entitled to reach out to Infanttech for a complimentary battery replacement. The company is also proactively reaching out to all known buyers, as per CPSC information.
