SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20120309-7202F-2147469422. Matched catalog product: Graco DuetSoothe Swing and Rocker - Model 1893776. Source model text: Quattro Tour Duo/ Model 1748843. Incident: On February 29, 2012, my wife was teaching a class at [REDACTED] and our one and two year old boys were in the Kids Club. My wife brought our 2010 Graco DuoGlider Double Stroller in for our one year old to take a nap in. Our two year old was trying to get something out of the undercarriage basket and proceeded to reach his head and arms into the basket. While in this position, he walked his body around to the side of the stroller to get a better reach on whatever he was trying to grab and his head got stuck between the frame underneath the back seat and the undercarriage basket. His head was stuck in an approx. 6-8 inch gap. The amazing kid's club staff realized what was happening immediately and jumped into action. It took 2 staff members and breaking the basket to remove him. During the minute and a half that he was stuck his airway was compromised and he stopped breathing. When the staff removed him he was blue and they were able to get him to come to within seconds and he began to cry. Their fast-acting, life saving efforts saved our son's life. After an ER visit and thorough check-up our son was fine with just some scraps and bruises.
