Attention all parents and caregivers! It has come to our attention that several products from the popular baby toy and accessories brand, Romper & Co, have been recalled due to serious safety concerns. These products were sold nationwide through various retailers and also online through the brand's website. The recall was initiated by the Australia Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC), who found that the following items did not meet the safety requirements for children up to 36 months: the wooden barbell rattle, acorn rattan rattle, wooden egg shakers, 360 teether, and Wooden toy maracas.
According to the ACCC, if a part of these toys becomes dislodged in a child's mouth, it can lead to choking, suffocation, or even death. We understand that this news may be worrying for parents, but we want to assure you that your child's safety is our top priority. The full list of retailers who sold these toys can be found on the ACCC's website. If you have purchased any of the listed items, please keep them out of your child's reach and contact Romper & Co for a refund.
In addition to the toys, Romper & Co's children's bamboo pyjama set has also been recalled by the ACCC. This includes all colors of the PJ set, as it was found to not have the correct fire hazard label. The ACCC has warned that if this sleepwear is exposed to heat or a flame, it could cause serious burn injuries. We urge anyone who has purchased this product to return it to Romper & Co for the correct label or a full refund.
But that's not all. The ACCC has also recalled two pairs of kids' sunglasses sold by Romper & Co - the Teddy Matte sunglasses and Vogue sunglasses. These products were found to not comply with mandatory standards for sunglasses and fashion spectacles, as they do not have the required UV rating label. The ACCC has warned that there is a risk of serious eye damage or vision impairment if the glasses are used incorrectly. Therefore, we encourage customers to return the glasses for the required label or a full refund.
We understand that this news may be concerning for our customers, and we want to thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this recall process. It's important for us to ensure the safety of our little ones, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. In related news, we have learned that Romper & Co will be closing down, with their last day of trade on May 31. We thank you for your support and wish you all the best in your parenting journey. Stay safe and stay informed, friends.
