Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 84,000 Playtime Pals Pop-Up Hideaway Hut children's tents are being recalled because the fiberglass support rods can break and splinter. When the rods break, they become sharp and pose a serious cutting risk to children using the tent. There have been 270 reports of these rods breaking, including two reports of bruises and lacerations. These animal-themed tents were sold exclusively at Home Depot stores in November 2017 for about $13. Consumers should immediately stop using these tents and return them to Home Depot for a full refund or store credit.

Risk

The fiberglass rod that provides structure to the nylon shell can snap or splinter, creating sharp edges that can cause cuts and bruises to children playing inside or near the tent.
