United KingdomGrey and white fluffy knitted baby sleeping bag with decorative ears, a hood, wood‑effect buttons and a plastic clip at the bottom is affected. It was withdrawn because the hood can cover a baby’s nose and mouth, the neck fastening is inappropriate, there are no arm holes so a baby could slip further into the bag, and safety information and warnings are inadequate; it does not meet the General Product Safety Regulations 2005. The distributor Little Jax has withdrawn the product from the market.

The hazard
The hooded infant sleeping bag presents a serious risk of suffocation. The presence of a hood increases the likelihood that, during normal sleep movements, the hood may cover the baby’s nose and mouth, obstructing the airway. Additionally, the neck opening is secured with inappropriate fasteners and there are no arm holes, which may allow the baby to slip further into the sleeping bag, increasing the risk of the head becoming fully covered. Improvements are also required to safety information and warnings.
The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.
What to do
The product has been withdrawn from the market by the distributor, Little Jax
