Latest Piper & Posie Infant Sleep Bags Recall Updates

May 5, 2021: CPSC Announces Infant Sleep Bag Recall

CPSC, working with Health Canada, recalled infant sleep bags sold under ten brand names, including Piper & Posie, citing a suffocation hazard from a neck opening sized too large for infants [1, 2]. About 3,600 sleep bags were recalled in the United States and about 33,250 in Canada. No incidents or injuries had been reported when the notice was announced.

Which Piper & Posie Infant Sleep Bags Are Affected?

The recall covers Piper & Posie infant sleep bags in six style numbers. Each one appears on a label inside the side seam, behind the care label:

• Style numbers CL00819, CL00923, CL00982, CL01005, CL01006 and CL01007
• Sold at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls stores nationwide and online at tjmaxx.com, marshalls.com and Sierra
• Sold between April 2018 and February 2021 for about $20 per sleep bag

The bags also came in a range of colors and designs, from animals to construction prints, across all ten recalled brand names, so the style number is the surest way to confirm a match.

Why Were the Piper & Posie Infant Sleep Bags Recalled?

The Piper & Posie infant sleep bags were recalled because the neck opening is too large for infants 0 to 6 months in size. An infant’s head can slip into the opening and become covered by the sleep bag. That covering creates a risk of suffocation. The CPSC recall notice, issued jointly with Health Canada, names this same hazard for all ten recalled sleep bag brands. A separate UK product-safety recall alert (2101-0207) also named Piper & Posie among 11 brand names carrying the same oversized-neck-opening hazard in sleep bags sold in the UK [3]. TJX imports these Piper & Posie sleep bags, made in China and India, and sold them at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls stores and online, including Sierra, until the recall, which covers only the six style numbers under this brand.

Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses

No incidents, injuries or illnesses had been reported to CPSC or to TJX when this recall was posted on May 5, 2021. That count reflects only the reports received by the notice date. Health Canada’s own recall notice for these sleep bags likewise recorded no reports of suffocation in Canada as of its last update in March 2021. Neither agency has published a newer figure since the announcement. A recall does not by itself mean every owner experienced a problem, and the lack of reports so far does not rule one out. Owners of a recalled sleep bag should tell TJX and CPSC if an infant was hurt.

What Should Consumers Do?

Anyone who owns a recalled Piper & Posie infant sleep bag should take the following steps:

1. Stop using the sleep bag immediately, even if it still looks safe, undamaged or brand new.
2. Check the label inside the side seam, behind the care label, for style number CL00819, CL00923, CL00982, CL01005, CL01006 or CL01007.
3. For online purchases, email ecommercecustomerservice@tjx.com or call 833-888-0776, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, for a refund or gift card.
4. For in-store purchases, email customerservice@tjx.com or call 800-926-6299, the same hours, for a refund or gift card.
5. Use the “Contact Us” page at tjmaxx.com, marshalls.com or sierra.com if you prefer not to call or email.
6. Report any suffocation risk or incident to CPSC at 800-638-2772 (TTY 301-595-7054) or through SaferProducts.gov.
7. Keep the sleep bag away from infants and out of reach until you return it.

Legal Options

No lawsuit, class action or multidistrict case has been filed over this Piper & Posie sleep bag recall. No case has been filed against TJX or the sleep bags’ makers. A recall like this, even with no injuries confirmed, may still support a legal claim. A general product-liability, negligence or failure-to-warn claim is one option. A recall does not automatically establish liability or eligibility for compensation. A lawyer can review the facts of a claim over the recalled Piper & Posie sleep bags, weighing receipts, photos and medical records to help decide whether it’s worth pursuing.

Filing Deadlines

Deadlines for filing a product-liability claim come from state law, not from the recall itself. They depend on where a person lives and when the alleged injury and its diagnosis happened. Some states start the clock at diagnosis rather than at the date of purchase or use, and the applicable period can be short. A missed deadline can end a strong claim before a lawyer even reviews it. Anyone considering a claim over one of these sleep bags should check with a lawyer promptly to learn which deadline applies to their situation.
