The Consumer Product Safety Commission is warning consumers to stop using Flyboss infant bouncers immediately because they can collapse while in use, creating an impact-injury risk for infants. The agency’s September 10 warning directs consumers to dispose of the products and not sell or give them away. It does not list a refund, replacement, repair or reimbursement.
For a family, the financial point should be kept narrow. Following the warning can avoid the much larger personal and financial consequences of an injury. But CPSC has not announced that a Flyboss buyer will be paid for the product or sent another seat, so families should not assume a remedy that is absent from the official notice.
What CPSC says about the Flyboss bouncers
The CPSC warning identifies Flyboss 3-in-1 Portable Baby Bouncer and Rocker Chairs. The agency says the bouncers have three height settings and were sold in neutral colors such as off-white, gray and beige. They include an accessory bar with items such as a moon, star or animal hanging from it.
CPSC says the bouncers can collapse while in use, posing a risk that an infant in the bouncer will strike the underlying surface. The agency reports that it is aware of 191 collapse reports, including 115 incidents in which an infant’s head struck the surface below. It says at least 20 consumers sought medical attention for their infant.
The warning says about 14,200 units were involved. The bouncers were sold on Amazon.com from September 2024 through August 2026 for about $40 to $110, and the agency says the products have also been found for sale on eBay.com. Those sales details can help a household compare a purchase record, but they are not a payment offer.

The official action is disposal, not a product remedy
CPSC says consumers should stop using the Flyboss bouncers immediately and dispose of them. It also says not to sell or give away the hazardous products. The notice does not direct owners to mail the product, upload a photograph, contact a company for money or wait for a replacement.
The agency says the importer, Dougllass LLC of Sheridan, Wyoming, has been unresponsive to CPSC requests for a recall or information about the product. That is relevant because it means the notice is a CPSC warning rather than a conventional company-supported recall with a stated remedy.
Some product recalls do have a refund or repair route. This warning does not list one. An advertisement, social post or unexpected text that promises a Flyboss payout should be treated carefully. No fee, bank details or verification code is needed to carry out the agency’s stated stop-use and disposal instruction.
Checking whether a bouncer matches
Caregivers should use the photos and description on the CPSC page to compare the product, rather than relying only on a marketplace title. A bouncer can be resold, gifted or bought secondhand, so the current owner may not have an Amazon order in the household’s name. The accessory bar, colors and three-height-setting description are useful comparison details.
A similar-looking infant seat is not automatically part of this warning. The product name and physical details matter. If a caregiver is uncertain, the cautious short-term choice is not to place an infant in the product while checking the official notice. That is a safety decision, not a statement that every bouncer on the market has the reported problem.
The warning does not replace the need to follow a product’s normal age, weight, setup and supervision instructions for any other infant product. It also does not authorize a household to pass a known hazardous product to another caregiver. CPSC explicitly says not to sell or give away the Flyboss products addressed by the warning.
What to do after an incident
A caregiver facing an immediate injury concern should seek appropriate medical help. CPSC also asks people to report incidents involving injury or a product defect through SaferProducts.gov. A report can give the agency information about the product, but it is not a promise of compensation.
The news release supports a specific conclusion: CPSC warns that Flyboss infant bouncers can collapse and tells consumers to stop using and dispose of them. The narrow consumer-financial value is avoiding further exposure to a known safety risk. It does not support a claim that consumers have a refund or replacement right.
