GRRRRR!!!! BUMBO!!!!!

So daycare sent home the Bumbo that we send with Logan because of the "recall".

I tried to explain that it's not really a recall, that they are just issuing new stickers and since they never put it anywhere but on the floor anyway it shouldn't be an issue.

But they won't budge.

I'm so ticked because it's his favorite place to sit and I know he spent a lot of time in it.

Man thats a drag, but I can understand, they don't want to be liable in any way if anything should happen. Does he like a bouncer?

That stinks. They're probably trying to cover their butts in case anything were ever to happen.

He's a little too big for the bouncy chair these days.

I would totally understand if the product itself were being redesigned or deemed dangerous.

All they are doing is issuing clearer directions though.

THAT'S NOT A RECALL!!! Chat Icon

Annoying! They should be using it on the floor anyway so it shouldn't even be an issue. It's funny because Emma's teacher actually asked me this morning if she could borrow mine for another boy in the class. I told her about the recall and she said she knew and that they would be using it properly.

Re: GRRRRR!!!! BUMBO!!!!!

My sister works in day care and her center is getting rid of them also. I think it's a liability thing....but it means Lily is getting a free one for my parent's house!

Well that is just plain silly. If the babies are being supervised and put in the bumbo on the floor, there should be no need to take it out of a daycare. Like other's have said, it's an issue of slapping a sticker on it and calling it a day.
