ASDA recalls dummy over injury risk (7 April 2015)

Duncan Lewis, Legal News Solicitors, ASDA recalls dummy over injury risk

Supermarket chain ASDA has recalled a brand of dummy after a customer complained that the teat detached in their child’s mouth.

Packets of Little Angels 2 Newborn Soothers 0+ Months are being recalled as a precaution, after one of the dummies was found to have fallen apart during use.

ASDA has issued an apology and says that it is investigating the claim, which was made on social media.

The recall follows the recall of another Little Angels product in January 2013, when Little Angels Cherry Soother was recalled.

ASDA has issued a statement over the latest product recall involving Little Angels 2 Newborn Soothers 0+ Months:
“These are sold in twin packs – the shield is clear and the plug on the front has a number of different designs.

“We have had one customer complaint that the teat has broken away and detached from the hard casing, so we have taken the precaution of taking the product off sale and recalling from customers due to the possible risk of choking.

“The care and safety of our customers is our top priority, which is why we are recalling the product, even though there has been only one complaint and we are yet to conduct our investigation.

“We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused.”
