Carter's is recalling approximately 107,200 of its 3-piece penguin cardigan sets because the toggle buttons on the cardigan can detach. These sets include a white penguin bodysuit, a grey hooded cardigan, and grey pants, sold in sizes newborn to 24 months. The firm has received three reports of children placing the detached toggle buttons in their mouths, though no injuries have been reported. These sets were sold at major retailers like Kohl's, Macy's, and Toys "R" Us between July 2017 and March 2018.
The toggle buttons on the grey hooded cardigan can break off from the garment. If a button detaches, a young child can put it in their mouth, creating a serious choking hazard.
Consumer should immediately take the recalled cardigan sets away from children, stop using them and return them to a Carter's store location for a full refund in the form of a gift card. Consumers can also contact Carter's Consumer Affairs department and request a free return label and envelope to return the cardigan for a refund in the form of an electronic gift card.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
