Recall alert: Guava Roam Strollers recalled over brake issue

Parents need to check their strollers after 8,500 have been recalled because of a problem with their brakes.

The were sold from August 2020 to October 2023 for between $500 and $550 on the company’s website, as well as Babylist.com, the CPSC said.

Parents and caregivers should stop using the strollers and contact Guava Family for a repair kit and instructions.
