Little Miss Matched sleepwear poses fire risk
- February 9, 2010 2:01 PM
- By Charlene Sadler
About 300 units of Children's Sleepwear made by Little Miss Matched are being recalled because they don't meet design and flammability requirements.
The clothing was sold at various retail stores in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, and Ontario between March 2008 to November 2009.
Children's sleepwear that is loose fitting or that has loose edges can contact ignition sources such as stove elements, candles, and matches more readily than tight-fitting sleepwear, and once ignited will burn rapidly, potentially resulting in severe burns to large areas of the child's body.
