Recall Alert: 55,700 Children’s Bath Wraps Recalled Over Risk of Catching Fire

Around 55,700 Restoration Hardware (RH) children’s bath wraps have been recalled because they pose a risk of burn injuries to youngsters. The wraps do not meet government standards for flammability in children’s sleepwear, according to the recall alert.

RH issued the recall on Wednesday, saying the company would contact all known purchasers directly. So far, no related incidents or injuries have been reported, the recall notice said.

The recall includes three styles of hooded children’s bath wraps: Animal, Heathered Plush, and Luxe Sherpa.  

The animal bath wraps are made of cotton terry and have animal faces on the hoods, including: a bunny (ivory or petal colors), cat, dog, dragon, elephant, lion, monkey, moose, or unicorn. They were sold in sizes 2-3 years, 3-4 years, and 4-5 years.

The heathered plush bath wraps are made of a heathered polyester plush fabric and were sold in blue, gray, lilac, and pink. The bath wrap came in sizes 18-24 months, 2-3 years, 3-4 years, 4-5 years, 6-7 years, and 8-10 years.

The luxe sherpa bath wraps have a jersey exterior made of a polyester, rayon, and spandex blend and a polyester sherpa fleece lining.  They were sold in charcoal, gray, ivory, lilac, navy and pink, for sizes 18-24 months, 2-3 years, 3-4 years, 4-5 years, 6-7 years and 8-10 years.

The company said all affected bath wraps have attached belts and patch pockets. The size and “RH BABY&CHILD” or “baby & child RESTORATION HARDWARE” are printed on a sewn-in label at the neck.

The bathwraps, which were made in Turkey and China, were sold in RH Baby & Child Galleries and RH Outlets nationwide and online at www.rh.com and www.rhbabyandchild.com between April 2014 and November 2020. They cost between $1 and $64, the notice said. 

RH is giving a full refund for the wraps, or a credit of $35 for the animal bath wrap, $32 for the heathered bath wrap or $39 for the sherpa bath wrap, if the consumer’s purchase price cannot be determined. 

The SKU or UPC of the bath wraps included in this recall can be found on their website. The SKU or UPC is located on the purchase receipt.

The recall comes just a day after Battop issued a recall over its infant bath seat. Approximately 5,000 of the infant bath seats sold exclusively on Amazon were recalled for posing a drowning risk to babies. The recall alert says the seats can tip over while in use, posing a drowning hazard to babies.

It’s not just household items designed for infants and young children that face recalls over safety. 

In February, Zarbee’s Naturals was hit with a class action lawsuit for allegedly intentionally misrepresenting the ingredients in its Children’s Nighttime Cough Syrup + Mucus with Dark Honey, Grape Flavor. 

Lead plaintiff Akiela Babb said the cough syrup included ingredients that had been made through chemical processes or fermentation, despite the company emphasizing the product’s “natural” ingredients through the terms “chemical free” and “handpicked natural ingredients.”
