What the authority reported
The sleep bag presents a serious risk of suffocation, overheating and death as it has a head covering. This breaches the clause in the relevant standard, BS EN 16781, as it can allow the user to overheat. The presence of the head covering can lead to a rise in a child’s core temperature and has been associated with sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The presence of a hood can also obstruct the user’s airways, causing them to suffocate. The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.
What to do
Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
