Davie, Florida-based Hard Rock Cafe International (USA) Inc. is recalling about 1,550 units of children’s hooded sweatshirts with drawstrings citing strangulation risk, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said.<\/p>\n
The recall involves the Hard Rock Cafe Children’s Hooded Sweatshirt, Laura Be Guitar Co Boys Split Design Zip Hood blk, with a neck drawstring. The sweatshirt was sold in black with red and white lettering on the front which states HARD ROCK MUSIC 1971.<\/p>\n
The sizes range from S (6-8), M (8-10) and L (10-12). <\/p>\n
The sweatshirts were manufactured in Portugal and sold at Hard Rock Cafes nationwide and online at www.hardrock.com from September 2019 through January 2022 for about $36.<\/p>\n
According to the agency, the children’s sweatshirts have a drawstring in the hood that can become entangled or caught on objects, posing a strangulation hazard to children.<\/p>\n
However, the company has not received any reports of incidents or injuries related to the recalled product to date.<\/p>\n
Consumers are urged to immediately take the recalled sweatshirts away from the child and remove the drawstring to eliminate the hazard or return the sweatshirt to Hard Rock for a full refund, shipping included.<\/p>\n
In similar recalls, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania -based Thorley Industries, LLC, d.b.a. 4Moms earlier this week called back more than 2 million MamaRoo swings and RockaRoo rockers citing entanglement and strangulation risks.<\/p>\n
In June, City of Industry, California-based Asweets Global Inc. called back about 13,300 Wonder & Wise Baby Activity push walkers for strangulation risks. <\/p>\n
