A class action lawsuit has been filed against Hatch Baby, alleging that the first-generation Baby Rest Sound Machine has a defective power adapter that poses an electrical shock hazard. The lawsuit seeks damages for consumers who have purchased the sound machine.
A new class action lawsuit has been filed against Hatch Baby, alleging that the first-generation Baby Rest Sound Machine has a defective power adapter that poses an electrical shock hazard. The lawsuit was filed by three consumers who purchased the sound machine and allege that they suffered electrical shocks when they plugged it in.
The lawsuit alleges that the power adapter on the Baby Rest Sound Machine is not properly insulated and can become loose over time, exposing live wires. This can pose an electrical shock hazard to consumers who come into contact with the exposed wires.
