CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) -- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced this week that Target was recalling a line of children's pajamas because they fail to meet federal flammability standards.
The
recall includes Target Circo and Xhilaration children's cotton or
cotton/fleece two-piece pajama sets sold in infant and
toddler sizes 12M, 2T, 3T, 4T and 5T, and in girls and boys sizes XS, S,
M, L and XL.
To see a complete list of item numbers included in this recall, visit
the firm's website.
The item number is located on a tag on the shirt's side seam and on the
pants at the waist. A tag printed on the neck of the pajamas states
"Circo" or "Xhilaration", "Wear snug-fitting not flame resistant" and
the item number.
The pajamas were also sold with a yellow hangtag that
states, "For child's safety, garment should fit snugly. This garment is
not flame resistant. Loose-fitting garment is more likely to catch
fire."
The sets were sold at Target stores and online at target.com from August 2012 through November 2012 for between $8 and $13.
If you bought one of these sets, you are advised to return them to any Target store for a full refund.
For more information, you can call Target; at (800) 440-0680, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or go online at www.target.com and click on Product Recalls at the bottom of the page.
