Young children can quickly and silently become strangled on pull cords, continuous loop cords, inner cords or any other accessible cords on window coverings," said Alex Hoehn-Saric, chairman of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

"Cordless window blinds, shades, draperies, and other window coverings are the safest option," he said in a commission news release.

The hidden danger of corded window coverings can lead to tragedies, even when an adult is nearby, the CPSC warned.

According to CPSC data, about nine children under the age of 5 die every year, on average, from strangling on window blinds and coverings with cords. Furthermore, there were more than 200 window covering cord incidents involving children 8 and younger between January 2009 and December 2021. Of these incidents, nearly half (48%) of the children died.

Even if they don't die, children can be left with serious injuries such as permanent brain damage or even quadriplegia.

Blinds, shades, drapes and other types of window coverings that don't have cords can be found at most home decor stores and online marketplaces. Installing cordless window coverings in any room where a child might be could save their life.
