The following recalls have been announced:

—About 200 baby walkers, made in Taiwan and imported by Le Hing Inc., of South El Monte, Calif., because the walkers are not designed to stop at the edge of a step and can fit through a standard doorway. In issuing the recall, the Consumer Product Safety Commission warned that babies using the walkers “can be seriously injured or killed.” No injuries or incidents have been reported. Small independent retailers and discount stores in California and Arizona sold the walkers from June 2009 through August 2009. The item number L-0809EN is printed on the side of the product’s box.
