Why are the sleeping bags being recalled?
John Lewis is recalling the product as there is a risk that the poppers can become unsecure and detach.
This means there is a potential choking hazard.
What should I do if I'm affected?
The retailer has told anyone who has bought any of these products to stop using them immediately, package and return to their local branch of John Lewis for a full exchange or refund.
It is also possible to return it to your local branch of Waitrose, along with the original order number enclosed in the package for a refund.
You can also contact John Lewis on 01698 545 009 for more information (09.00-17.00 Monday-Friday), and find more information on their latest product recalls on johnlewis.com.
A John Lewis spokesperson said:
'We’re very sorry that it has been necessary to recall this product and for the inconvenience caused.'
Our tests found baby sleeping bags with neck openings that were too large, buttons that could be pulled off and become a choking hazard and loose threads that could become a tourniquet hazard.
