LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA -- Baby Sak, Pembroke Pines, FL, in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), is recalling its Baby Sak bean bag infant cushions because of a suffocation risk. Although no deaths have been reported involving Baby Sak, the Commission has received reports of 19 infants being found dead lying face down on similar products.
