The hazard
The hooded infant sleeping bag presents a serious risk of suffocation. The presence of a hood increases the likelihood that, during normal sleep movements, the hood may cover the baby’s nose and mouth, obstructing the airway. Additionally, the neck opening is secured with inappropriate fasteners and there are no arm holes, which may allow the baby to slip further into the sleeping bag, increasing the risk of the head becoming fully covered. Improvements are also required to safety information and warnings.
The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.
From the official product safety notice on GOV.UK, published by the Office for Product Safety and Standards.
Why it matters for your bed or cot
Three faults are listed: a hood, no arm holes, and a neck fastened with what OPSS calls inappropriate fasteners. The last one is important because a neck that doesn’t hold lets a baby slip further in. Check any sleeping bag for a neck that fits snugly and arm holes your baby’s arms go through.
