South Carolina parents of young children should check their dressers and closets for any Gabiano pajamas collection – which pose a risk of burn injury to infants and toddlers.
About 6,000 Gabiano Collection boys’ and girls’ pajamas, sets and gowns have been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the manufacturer, Ishtex Textile Products Inc. of Duluth, Ga.
The pajamas fail to meet the federal flammability standards for children’s sleepwear and pose a risk of burn injury.
The pajamas were sold at children’s clothing and specialty retailers nationwide and online from February 2010 to December 2011 for between about $20 and $50. Many were sold in the Carolinas and Georgia.
The recall involves all styles of Gabiano Collection boys’ and girls’ 100 percent cotton pajamas, including sets (tops and bottoms), one-piece suits and gowns in a variety of colors and designs in sizes 2 through 14. “Gabiano” is printed on a tag sewn into the center back neckline of the tops and gown and at the center back of the bottoms.
Children should stop wearing the recalled sleepwear immediately and consumers should return it for a refund, exchange or store credit.
