Harkla Recalls Children's Sensory Swings
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled more than 25,000 Harkla compression sensory swings because a ceiling hook can detach from its mounting plate.
Updated on Nov. 3, 2026 in Special Needs
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled more than 25,000 Harkla children's compression sensory swings sold nationwide. The ceiling hook on affected models can separate from its mounting plate, posing a risk of serious injury from a fall.
Why it matters
Harkla received 29 reports of ceiling hook separation, which resulted in 14 injuries including a broken arm and two concussions. Parents who own the affected four-hole ceiling hook models are being directed to stop using them and seek a free repair kit.
The recall rests on 29 company-received reports of ceiling hook separation, which caused 14 injuries, across about 30,000 units sold in the U.S. and Canada. It is not stated whether further incidents have been reported since the recall was announced.
The players
U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission
The federal agency responsible for protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury from consumer products, which oversees product recalls like this one.
Harkla
The company that designs and sells children's compression sensory swings through its own website and online marketplaces.
The details
The recall covers only models with the four-hole ceiling hook, identified by SKU numbers LS-COMP-1BLU or LS-COMP-1BLU-SW on the packaging. The swings were sold from March 2020 through December 2025 at $100 to $130 through Amazon.com, Harkla.co and independent retailers, and owners can obtain a free repair kit with a replacement mounting plate, a safety strap and updated instructions.
Timeline
March 2020 through December 2025: period during which the swings were sold at $100 to $130.
Big Picture
Under the Consumer Product Safety Act, the Commission's recall authority is being used here to address a hanging-hardware failure in a children's sensory product. The case shows how company-reported incident data, rather than government testing alone, can trigger a nationwide recall of specialty children's equipment.
Owners of the four-hole ceiling hook models should stop using the swing and contact Harkla for the free repair kit. Check the packaging for SKU LS-COMP-1BLU or LS-COMP-1BLU-SW to confirm whether your swing is covered.
The takeaway
Parents with children's hanging sensory equipment should periodically check that mounting hardware remains secure and stop use immediately if a hook shows any sign of separating.
