Product: 2 B REAL Girls' Velour Hooded Sweatshirts
Manufacturer: Allura Imports Inc., of New York, NY
Recall: November 25, 2009. Allura has recalled approximately 3,700 girls' hooded sweatshirts because they contain a drawstring through the hood, which poses a strangulation hazard to a child. There have been no injuries reported.
The recalled items include girls' velour hooded sweatshirts with a zip front that were sold as part of a 2-piece set. 'Major Diva' is printed on the front of the sweatshirt. The tag on the inside says '2 B REAL.' The sweatshirts were sold in hot pink, light pink, ivory and khaki in size 4, 5/6 and 6X.
The recalled sweatshirts were sold only in Burlington Coat Factory stores nationwide from October 2008 through August 2009 for $11.
What to do: Remove the drawstring from the hood to eliminate the hazard, or return to place of purchase or to Allura for a refund.
