It's always located on the back or underneath the product. An alarming government statistic estimates over 90,000 babies are injured every year seriously enough to require emergency room treatment from using various juvenile products. In fact, nursery products were ranked the 9th most dangerous industry and toys as the 15th most dangerous. Either the regulations aren't strong enough or no one's rigidly enforcing the regulations. You expect warning labels on chain saws, electric drills, toaster ovens, etc. because they can electrocute us, amputate fingers, put out eyes.
