Disney Babies Romper Sets Recalled for Sharp Crotch Snap Prongs

Plain-English summary

Catton Brothers Corp. is recalling approximately 13,200 Disney Babies romper sets for boys and girls in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The recall involves denim rompers with embroidered Baby Minnie or Baby Mickey designs and matching denim hats. The rompers are available in sizes 0 to 6 months and 6 to 9 months. The specific styles involved are 1169 for boys and 1168 for girls. These items were manufactured in Bangladesh.

The recall is being conducted because some of the romper's crotch snaps were improperly attached, exposing a sharp prong. This defect could cause laceration injuries to infants. CPSC and Catton Brothers Corp. are not aware of any injuries involving these rompers. The recall is a precautionary measure to prevent the possibility of injury.

The romper sets were sold at department and discount stores nationwide from October 1996 through February 1997 for approximately $10 to $14. The Disney Store did not sell these rompers. Consumers should stop using the rompers immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund. Disney Babies denim rompers made in the Philippines are not involved in this recall.
