What to do if you own this product
What is the hazard with Mom Genius Retractable Safety Gates?
Mom Genius Retractable Safety Gates was announced in a previous recall cycle, in the "Other" category. The recalled gates violate the mandatory standard for expansion gates and expandable enclosures because a child's torso can fit through the opening between the gate and the floor, posing a risk of serious injury or death due to entrapment. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should stop using the recalled retractable safety gates immediately and contact Mom Genius for a full refund. Consumers must destroy the gate by cutting through the mesh and take a photo showing the destroyed gate. Submit the photo to product-recall@momgenius.com. Once the photo is received, Mom Genius will issue a full refund. Sold at: Amazon.com, Walmart.com, Purchasingpower.com and Perpay.com from March 2024 through June 2025 for between $50 and $7.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
How many units are affected?
About About 920 units of Mom Genius Retractable Safety Gates are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
