Tommee Tippee have launched a recall of their popular new  style of 12 month+ Tommee Tippee  Super Soft Comforters after parents expressed their concerns over the new style.

Since a relaunch of their product in May they have received feedback from some parents concerned about potential problems caused by the shield being smaller than before.

Tommee Tippee say, “We’ve taken these reports very seriously, so have carried out a full investigation to reconfirm that we were happy the item met our requirements on safety. The new design does meet the mandatory Australian safety standards, but our objective is that our comforters should go beyond that to ensure our customers are using the safest possible products.

We have concluded that this comforter does not meet that objective, and it is therefore not something we are happy to continue selling. We will be redesigning it with a larger shield.

We fully appreciate that some little ones will be very dependent on their comforter, so we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this will cause. The safety and reliability of this product is however our overriding concern, so we hope you can understand why we have decided recalling the product is the right thing to do.”

The only product affected is the new Australian Tommee Tippee Super Soft Comforter for age 12+ months, sold since late May 2016 and pictured below.

  • Interesting …you would think that they would have been well tested before being released on the market.

  • I love that social media is a great way to share recall information that would be hard to learn about otherwise.

  • My little grandson uses a dummy. I will have to let my son and daughter in law know about this, make sure they stop using them if they have any

  • Good on them for recalling, even though the comforter did meet the safety standards.

  • It’s better to have a recall, than to have an accident.

  • I am glad the manufacturer is willing to do an urgent recall of these products. They need to be big enough that they cannot put the outer section in their mouths, but not so high that they rub baby’s nose

  • It’s definitely something you want to be careful with.
