A new product recall affects thousands of nightgowns designed for children.
According to the Consumer Production Safety Commission (CPSC), 13,000 kids’ sleepwear items exclusively sold on Amazon by Chinese company iMOONZZZ “fail to meet the flammability standards for children’s sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injuries to children.”
iMOONZZZ, which doesn’t appear to have operated anywhere in U.S. besides Amazon, has a basic website with a recall landing page instructing customers on how to get their money back. An Instagram account for the brand doesn’t appear to be operational.
CPSC identified four styles sold from March through June that fell short of federal safety guidelines around fire risk. Manufactured in China, the styles include a long vintage soft cotton full-length nightdress, a full-length short-sleeve nightdress, a full-length mesh nightdress and a soft fleece long-sleeve sleepwear nightgown. The nightgowns were sold in sizes 3-4T, 5-6 years, 6-7 years, 7-8 years, 8-9 years and 10-12 years. The material matrix—printed on a sew-in, side-seam label—includes 100 percent cotton, and polyester, elastane and spandex blends.
While no incidents or injuries have been reported, consumers are instructed to immediately take the garments away from children and contact iMOONZZZ for a full refund. To received a refund of $20-$29, the nightgowns must be cut in half and photo evidence of the destroyed product must be sent to the Chinese company.
This isn’t the first time iMOONZZZ has run into compliance problems.
In June last year, about 2,000 units of the company’s children’s nightgowns were recalled for failing to meet federal flammability standards.
iMOONZZZ isn’t currently available on Amazon.
