Dorel Juvenile Group is recalling about 71,000 Eddie Bauer Soothe & Sway Play Yards in the United States.

The play yard's rocking bassinet attachment can tilt when secured by straps (in a nonrocking mode), which can cause it to stay tilted without returning to a level sleeping surface while in the rocking mode.

As a result, the tilted sleeping surface can cause an infant to roll to the corner or side of the bassinet and become wedged in the corner or pressed against the side or bottom of the bassinet. This presents a risk of suffocation or positional asphyxiation.

The company has received 10 reports of infants rolling to one side, including six that had their faces pressed against the side or the bottom of the bassinet. One child reportedly was turning purple and was out of breath when discovered.

The play yards were sold at Target, Sears, and Burlington Coat Factory stores nationwide and Internet retailers from January 2008 through May 2009, for about $150.

Consumers should stop using the bassinet attachment of the play yard, and contact Dorel Juvenile Group for a $40 voucher toward the purchase of a new Dorel product.
