Consumer Reports Investigates Safety of Baby Pacifiers Amid Concerns
Consumer Reports has conducted an investigation into the safety of baby pacifiers, a staple item for new parents. The report tested 20 different pacifiers for potential hazards such as choking risks, harmful chemicals, and durability. While most pacifiers performed well, some raised concerns due to risky attachments or confusing labels. The investigation highlighted that despite strict U.S. safety regulations, unsafe pacifiers still enter the market. Notably, some pacifiers sold online, particularly those from third-party sellers on platforms like Amazon and eBay, may not meet safety standards. Consumer Reports found potentially unsafe pacifiers, including glittery models with rhinestones and secondhand or vintage items, which could pose safety risks. The report emphasizes the importance of purchasing from trusted brands and ensuring products have undergone proper safety testing.
