Bubpods Sleep Sack

Published: January 9, 2023Recall ID: 1bb4f9c7-0424-4007-96b3-3ca3723691feCategory: generalCountry: Australia

Reason for Recall / Hazard

The sleep sack contains a weighted patch that poses compression or suffocation risk. Safe infant sleeping guidance discourages use of weighted swaddles and sleepwear.

Product Description & Identification

Reason / Defects: The sleep sack contains a weighted patch that poses compression or suffocation risk. Safe infant sleeping guidance discourages use of weighted swaddles and sleepwear. Hazards: Weighted sleepwear can restrict an infant’s chest and abdominal movement which increases the risk of suffocation. Weighted products can also limit an infant’s movements. For example, if an infant rolled onto its stomach it may not be able to roll back over. What to do: Consumers should stop using the product immediately and contact Bubpods to arrange to return the product for a full refund. Consumers can contact Bubpods by email at support@bubpods.com.au For more information about safe infant sleeping guidelines see the Best practice guide for the design of safe infant sleeping environments .
