What product does the Harkla recall cover?

The recall involves Harkla’s children’s sensory swings, specifically the compression swings with a blue fabric seat. Each swing comes with a four-hole hook and ceiling mounting hardware for suspension, with a drop length of 18 to 24 inches. Only swings with a four-hole hook are included in the recall. The SKU number LS-COMP-1BLU or LS-COMP-1BLU-SW is printed on the side of the product packaging, which is how a buyer can identify an affected swing.

Base Products LLC, doing business as Harkla, of Boise, Idaho, is the importer. The product was manufactured in China.

Where and when were the swings sold?

The swings were sold at Sensory Tool House, Hammer & Jacks, Loaded Sensory and Renew (Faire), and online at Amazon.com and Harkla.co. The sales period ran from March 2020 through December 2025, at a price between $100 and $130.

What is the hazard the CPSC identified?

According to the CPSC notice, the recalled swings’ ceiling hook can separate from its plate. That separation poses a risk of serious injury from a fall hazard. The agency published the recall in conjunction with Canada, and the notice carries a Fast Track Recall label.

What is established vs. what is alleged

The recall itself is an established regulatory action: the CPSC published it on October 29, 2026, and the notice describes the product, the hazard, the remedy and the units involved. No court decision, verdict or settlement appears in the record, and none is described here.

The injury information is reported by the company, not adjudicated. The notice states that Harkla has received 29 reports of the swing’s ceiling hook separating, including 14 injuries that resulted in two concussions, a broken arm, bumps and bruises. Those figures are the company’s reports as summarized by the CPSC. The notice does not identify any injured person, does not state that any injury has been proven in court, and does not assign fault to any party. It also does not state that every reported injury involved a fall or that a specific incident caused a specific outcome.

What remedy did the CPSC announce?

The remedy is a repair. Consumers are told to stop using the recalled swings immediately until repaired and to contact Harkla to receive a free repair kit, including shipping. The repair kit consists of a replacement ceiling hook mounting plate, a safety strap and updated swing installation instructions.

To obtain the kit, consumers are asked to register at https://harkla.co/pages/ceiling-hook-recall-2026. The notice also directs consumers to dispose of the original hooks only in accordance with local waste management and recycling guidelines.

Consumers can reach Harkla toll-free at 844-442-7552 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, by email at recall@harkla.co, or online at https://harkla.co by clicking “Recall” at the top of the page.

Where the recall stands procedurally

The Harkla matter is a CPSC recall, not a lawsuit. The record contains no federal court consolidation, no multidistrict litigation (MDL, a procedure that groups related federal lawsuits before one judge) and no judicial panel transfer. No class action, bellwether trial (a test trial used to gauge how similar cases may resolve) or appeal appears in the source document. The claims status is therefore simple: the CPSC announced a voluntary recall in consultation with the company on October 29, 2026, and the agency’s published remedy is a free repair kit.

What this does not establish

The CPSC notice does not state that any lawsuit has been filed, that any court has ruled on liability, or that any compensation has been awarded or is available. It does not establish that a particular swing caused a particular injury; it reports the company’s count of incidents and injuries. It does not say whether the repair kit has resolved every reported hook separation, and it does not describe an inspection or testing protocol beyond the product description. It does not address warranty rights, refunds or returns. Nothing in the document indicates a deadline for requesting the repair kit.
