Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

BreathableBaby is recalling approximately 15,000 BreathableSack sleeveless wearable blankets for infants. The zipper pull tabs and sliders on these blankets can detach, posing a choking hazard to small children. The products were sold in small and medium sizes in kiwi green, pink, and light blue from June 2012 to August 2013 at various retailers and online. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled garments and contact the manufacturer for a free replacement.

Risk

The zipper's pull tabs and sliders can break off or detach from the garment. If an infant finds and mouths these small metal parts, they could choke on them.

What You Should Do

  1. Check the tag sewn inside the wearable blanket near where the infant's right foot would be located to see if it is part of the recall.
  2. Verify if the tag identifies the product as 'Lot No. 124' with a 'Date of Manufacture: 04/17/2012'. Only blankets with this specific lot and date are affected.
  3. If your blanket matches these details, immediately stop using it and keep it out of reach of children.
