DescriptionOtteroo Inflatable Baby Float Product description The Otteroo Inflatable Baby Float is an inflatable round ring made of clear and blue plastic material. It has two air chambers that fasten around a baby's neck with a white buckle. The floats have a chin rest, two handles and two circular openings on the back of the ring to allow the device to expand as the child grows with age. There are three colorful balls that move freely around inside the ring. The name "Otteroo" is imprinted on the top of the float in the large, orange letters with an Otter Logo. Hazard identified The seam on the floatation device can leak air and deflate, posing a risk of drowning. Health Canada has not received any consumer reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of the affected floatation devices. Otteroo Corporation has received 54 reports of broken seams on the product. No injuries have been reported. Health Canada reminds consumers that the Otteroo is a bath toy and not a swimming aid or a life saving device.
