Plain-English summary

Target is recalling approximately 560,000 units of Circo and Xhilaration children's two-piece pajama sets. The recalled items are made of cotton or cotton/fleece and were sold in infant, toddler, and children's sizes. The sets feature various designs, including stars, dots, skulls, peace signs, cats, owls, footballs, and camouflage.

The recall was issued because the pajamas fail to meet federal flammability standards for children's sleepwear, specifically regarding tight-fitting sizing requirements. This non-compliance poses a burn hazard to children. The CPSC has not reported any injuries or illnesses associated with these products.

The pajamas were sold at Target stores nationwide and online at target.com from August 2012 through November 2012 for between $8 and $13. Consumers should immediately take the recalled pajamas away from children and return them to any Target store for a full refund. For more information, consumers can contact Target at (800) 440-0680 or visit the Product Recalls section on target.com.
