Major Recall: Baby Floats

Another big recall. (Don't forget about the Simplicity crib recall from last week).

This time it's about 4 million baby floats made by Aqua-Leisure Industries, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The leg straps in the seat can tear, causing kids to unexpectedly fall into the water, posing a risk of drown. There have been 31 reports of the seats tearing, but no injuries thankfully.

There are several styles of floats that are involved in the recall. Click here for more information and photos of all of them. 

They were sold at retailers across the country, including Target, Wal-Mart, Dollar General, Walgreens and Bed, Bath & Beyond from December 2002 through last month for between $8 and $15.

Here are photos of a couple of the styles though more are involved:
