Asda baby sleeping bag recall 2023: List of products and all you need to know 

The popular supermarket chain, Asda, has issued an urgent nationwide recall for at least eight different baby sleeping bags over safety concerns. It is feared that the buttons of the bags may come loose and pose risks of choking hazards if swallowed by small children and babies.

Announced on June 9, 2023, the voluntary recall was announced after George Home discovered that the baby sleeping bags contained a serious flaw that may cause the shoulder buttons to loosen and detach over time. If the detached buttons were to be swallowed by small children, it could cause them to choke, thus putting their lives at risk.
