Target just issued a recall on baby onesies because of a choking risk
Target Australia has just launched a voluntary recall on a number of baby onesie (or ‘coverall’) styles. Here’s all the information you need to keep your baby safe …
Target’s $10 onesies have been recalled
“At Target Australia, the safety of our customers and their families is our highest priority,” the company posted on Facebook.
“This is why we’ve decided to conduct a voluntary recall of a specific range of baby coveralls due to a quality issue. This only applies to Target two-way zip coveralls (sizes New Baby to 12-18mths) purchased between February 2018 and June 2018. Any coveralls purchased after 13 June 2018 are not affected by this recall.”
Recall details
The recall notice is not up on the Australian Product Recalls site as yet, but the details – via Target – are as follows …
What is the problem with these onesies?
The zip puller on these suits may break and detach. A detached zip pull may pose a choking or ingestion risk to infants.
Which onesies are affected?
Customers should return Target’s popular $10 baby onesie sold between February and June 2018. It comes in 15 different prints, and all prints and sizes are affected by this recall.
The prints are Bear White, Dino Blue, Swan Pink, Plane Blue, Pony Grey, Stripe Navy, Moon Black, Unicorn Pink, Forest White, Fox Grey, Floral Heart, Heart White, Bear Blue, Feather Purple and Bear Grey.
What should parents do if they have these onesies at home?
Parents should stop using these onesies and return them to a Target or Target Country store as soon as possible for a full refund.
The Target Customer Support Centre is on standby to chat to affected or concerned parents at 1300 753 567.
