CPSC Recalls Children’s Nightgowns
The U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued an official recall for children’s nightgowns, imported from China by Saro Trading Company of Burbank, CA. The garments fail to meet federal flammability standards for children’s sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injuries. However, no injuries have yet been reported.
The recall includes five styles of children’s nightgowns manufactured by Saro Trading, which is not an ASI-listed company. Each nightgown is made of 100% white cotton and have “Taleen” printed on the neck label. They feature either embroidery with eyelet trimming, ribbons on the chest, or buttons on the center front.
“Consumers should immediately take the recalled nightgowns away from children and contact the firm (www.sarostore.com) for instructions on receiving a full refund,” said the CPSC in an official recall statement.
About 7,800 garments were sold nationwide at Francie Hargrove Interior Designs, Georges Girls Luxe Sleep and Nichols stores, as well as online at www.sarostore.com and http://fennco.com/en/ from February 2012 through April 2016 for $25 each.
While Saro Trading Company is not an ASI-listed supplier, a search of ESP for “children’s sleepwear” turned up almost 50 garment styles.
