iCandy Peach 7 Car Seat Adaptor Compatibility Update

 

At iCandy, we are committed to providing our valued customers with the best options and compatibility for their products. We are excited to announce a recent improvement to our iCandy Peach 7 car seat adaptors, designed to enhance compatibility with a wider range of car seats. This update ensures that you have even more choices available when using your Peach 7 stroller.

 

What's Changed?

 

With this enhancement, some of the older car seat adaptors are no longer compatible with the newest car seats, including the iCandy Cocoon. To help you easily identify the difference, simply look at the profile of the adaptors:

 

  • Older Adaptor: Has a thicker profile.
  • New Adaptor: Features a slimmer profile.

 

See the images below for a visual comparison.

 

Checking Compatibility

 

If you've purchased a Peach 7 stroller and an iCandy Cocoon car seat, it's essential to ensure that your adaptors are compatible. Please note: If you have the older adaptors, they are not compatible with your iCandy Cocoon car seat. DO NOT use them to attach the iCandy Cocoon to your Peach 7 stroller. Your child's safety is our top priority.

iCandy Orange 3 - Swivel Wheel Upgrade

 

Customer feedback is extremely important to iCandy and is invaluable when it comes to enhancing the overall performance of our product in the pursuit of perfection.

 

Through extensive and valuable customer feedback, it has been brought to our attention that improvements could be made to the manoeuvrability of the iCandy Orange 3. We are aware that after a period of use there have been some instances when the front removable wheels have experienced limitations in their manoeuvrability.

 

In response to this feedback, we have been working hard to find a workable solution.

 

We have carried out extensive lifecycle testing on a solution and found these washers last on average in excess of 6 months per set.  We are confident that these washers will help maintain manoeuvrability.

 

We are happy to provide you with the upgrade kit that can be fitted with ease in a matter of seconds to your Orange 3. The kit will consist of a simple how to leaflet along with a number of washers to keep you on the road.

 

Fitting these washers is intended to reduce wear between components and provide an extra layer to give extended use without interruption. Like most consumables, these can be replaced after a period should they be needed.

 

All models of Orange 3 are affected and can be identified by the batch labels on the right side of the basket frame under the fabrics as below:

iCandy Swivel Bumper Bar Upgrade

 

Customer feedback is extremely important to iCandy and is invaluable when it comes to enhancing the overall performance of our pushchairs in the pursuit of perfection.

 

Through extensive user trials and from valuable customer feedback, it has been brought to our attention that improvements could be made to the hinged swivel bumper bar design on both the iCandy Peach and iCandy Orange pushchairs, to enhance both functionality and product satisfaction. In response to this and as part of our ongoing innovation-promise and quality improvement programme iCandy’s team of dedicated in-house UK designers have worked on enhancing the hinged swivel bumper bar mechanism for complete product satisfaction.

 

To help identify if your bumper bar is eligible for an upgrade, look for a noticeable 'swivel' hinged mechanism on both ends of the arm of your current bumper bar, where you may also notice a slight cosmetic 'gap' at the mechanism join.

 

The new iCandy Peach and Orange swivel bumper bars are now available should you wish to upgrade, completely free of charge. Click the button below to apply.

iCandy Bumper Bar User Guide

 

The iCandy’s innovative swivel hinged bumper bar is designed to ensure your child’s safety at all times while making the parenting journey as smooth as possible. The double swivel hinge design enables parents to partially remove the bumper bar at either end, enabling an easy transition of baby in and out of both the seat unit and carry cot. It is advised that all users of the bumper bar safely swivel the arm always away from baby's face, directing the angle of movement from the baby's waist and down. 

 

For guidance, please refer to the below images of the advised angle of direction when using the bumper bar in both seat unit mode and carry cot mode. 

 

          


 

iCandy MiChair 2016+ Product Recall Notice

E11055, E11074 MANUFACTURED 2016/2017

 

iCandy has a long-established history of providing high quality and safety ensured products. We work tirelessly to ensure that all iCandy customers have peace of mind that they are always receiving the best possible products available within the nursery industry.

 

As part of iCandy’s continuous quality improvement programme, it has come to our attention that a very limited number of the early edition iCandy MiChairs no longer meet our standards. The iCandy Michairs affected (Batch numbers E11055 and E11074) have been found to potentially develop hairline cracks in the seat base over time.

 

As with all iCandy products, extensive testing above and beyond the requirements of safety standards, including user trials were carried out at the time of the iCandy MiChair’s 2016 launch. During the process of formal certification and due diligence, no fault was found with the highchair.

 

In the event you identify your iCandy MiChair by either:

 

  • (A) Batch E11055 – This can be identified by a ‘08/16’ date sticker and five screw spaces in the metal plate on the underside of the iCandy MiChair.
  • (B) Batch E11074 – This can be identified by a white rectangle sticker. The sticker should include the number E11074. This can be found on the underside of the iCandy MiChair.

 

Please immediately stop using the product and complete the online form using the link below.

 

 

The iCandy Customer Services Team will then require the following parts to be dismantled and boxed:

  • The iCandy Michair white seat base (NOT the wooden back)
  • The silver leg attachments that fix to the white seat base, with the footrest attached.

 

 

 

What to return

Please refer to the Product Support Page for the instructional manual and supporting videos to assist you with dismantling your iCandy Michair.

We will provide you with an iCandy case reference number, arrange collection of the relevant items from you and upon receipt and checking of the parts, will send replacements to you, within 7 working days.

It was brought to our attention that improvements could be made to the front wheels of the iCandy Lime pushchair in order to enhance manoeuvrability and ensure a seamlessly smooth ride for parent and child. In response to this and as part of our innovation promise and our refusal to accept limitation when it comes to style and design, iCandy’s team of dedicated designers have worked on developing the wheel mechanism for complete product satisfaction.

 

The new iCandy Lime Lifestyle front wheels (in black) are now available should you wish to upgrade completely free-of-charge.

Peach 2018 bumper bar safety notice

 

It has recently been identified that a very limited number of iCandy Peach bumper bars are missing a plastic cap which results in there being a small hole in the bumper bar, visible at either side of the base of the hinge mechanism.

 

It should be noted that this hole is only visible when the bumper bar has been completely removed and levered back on one side.

 

 

Correct

Incorrect

There has been an extremely limited number of reports of this occurring since the Peach 2018’s commercially launch in March 2018, but as part of our duty of care to all our customers we are instructing all Peach users to check their bumper bars. This can be done quickly by removing and assessing the bumper bar, see video below for reference. Please ensure you inspect both ends of the bumper bar.

 

Please be assured if your Peach bumper bar has both caps in place there is no risk at a later date of an issue occurring.

 

As with all iCandy products, extensive testing above and beyond the requirements of safety standards, including user trials were carried out at the time of Peach 2018’s launch. During the process of formal certification and due diligence, no fault was found with the bumper bar.

 

In the event you identify any Peach model bumper bar that you feel may need to be replaced, please contact iCandy customers services on the follow;

Orange bumper bar safety initiative notice - January 2019

 

iCandy has a long-established history of providing high quality and safety ensured products. This reputation is of paramount importance to the brand to maintain, in order for all iCandy customers to have peace of mind that they are always receiving the best possible products available within the nursery industry.

 

As part of our ongoing product monitoring programme, it was identified that a few iCandy Orange bumper bars were missing a plastic cap which results in there being a small hole in the bumper bar, visible at the base of the hinge mechanism. It should be noted that this hole is only accessible when the bumper bar has been removed and levered back on one side. This relates specifically to the following batches: E11076, 11125, 11147, 11159, 11160 of the Orange 2017 pushchair.

 

As with all iCandy products, extensive testing above and beyond the requirements of safety standards, including user trials were carried out. During the process of formal certification and due diligence, no fault was found with the bumper bar.

 

Upon notification of a plastic cap missing, further risk assessments were carried out. Quality control checks were increased in production and a 100% inspection was carried out of stock held. Immediate changes to the design and manufacturing process of this component were made.

 

We would like to take this opportunity to request users to carry out a visible check of their product. This can be done quickly by removing and assessing the bumper bar, see images below for reference.

 

 

 

 

The safety and protection of all our customers and their families are central at iCandy and as such, it is our policy to act swiftly, even when the likelihood of an occurrence is extremely limited. iCandy will first and foremost always strive to protect, champion and prioritise safety and quality.

 

If required, a new bumper bar can be requested by telephoning customer services on +44 (0)1767 604400, Option 1, Customer Services. Alternatively, please complete the online form.

 

 

Request a bumper bar

 

 

Important - Please Note: If at the time of checking the bumper bar both caps are in place, please be re-assured that it is not possible for them to become dislodged or detached at any point in the future.

 

The pushchair is safe to use without the bumper bar being fitted provided that the child is correctly secured within the 5 point safety harness. Customers needing to remove a carrycot from the pushchair chassis can do so by lifting the product using 2 hands, holding on to the main hubs that secure the carrycot into the chassis. Do not lift the carrycot by the hood as the product is not intended to be carried in this manner.

 

We would like to take this opportunity to sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to our customers. We take the safety of our products very seriously and our Technical Team continually review all products as part of our ongoing improvement initiative.

 

 

 


 

Replacement iCandy Buckle and Crotch Strap for the Peach 2016 and Designer Midnight Editions

 

As part of our on-going monitoring programme, we recently identified a very small number of iCandy buckles that have broken in use. This can result in the crotch strap coming away from the centre of the buckle. This relates specifically to the Peach 2016 model (batch E10799 to batch E10910) and the Peach Designer Collection Midnight Edition. We would like to stress that the waist and shoulder harness is not affected. It should also be noted that the likelihood of the buckle failing is extremely low.

 

When taking into consideration all of the information at our disposal, including reviewing all returns data, testing the products and also performing routine risk assessments, we have taken the decision to offer a replacement buckle and crotch strap to all customers that have products within the affected batch range. The replacement buckle is new and improved with added strength integrated into the part.

 

Please be advised that we made an immediate change to the buckles, (on all potentially affected pushchairs), to the double-looped version shown in the middle picture below but also made an immediate production change, to the new improved design, (shown below with a tick), so you may already have this.

 

We would like to provide all of our customers with our most up-to-date buckle, so please check the back of your buckle and contact us for an immediate replacement, should you have one of the older designs, (marked with a X), see the differences below.

 

 

 

 

Please locate the serial and batch numbers at the top of your box or on your basket frame as shown in the image below, prior to filling in your request form, as you will need this information. We have included a Video on where to locate this at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PifEeAbltCg

 

You will also find the batch and serial numbers on the base board, inside the seat unit, (you will find a velcro strip located at the rear and bottom of the seat). If you have had a replacement seat unit since purchasing your iCandy Peach, please check the base board inside your seat unit for the batch and serial number.

 

We would advise all customers to use the 5-point harness at all times when a child is in the seat unit and ensure that all harness straps are adjusted correctly to suit the age and size of the child.
