Play Yards. Dorel Juvenile Group Inc. has recalled about 71,000 Eddie Bauer Soother & Sway portable play yards because the play yard's rocking bassinet attachment can tilt when secured by straps, which can cause it to stay tilted without returning to a level sleeping surface while in the rocking mode.

This presents a risk of suffocation or positional asphyxiation. The recalled play yards have a bassinet and changing station feature.
