Asda has issued an urgent recall of two products in its children's clothing range. A baby romper set has a zip which has been found to have sharp edges in some cases while a two-piece
Disney-branded set has a long cord which could tangle a child. In the recall notices, issued by the Office for Product Safety & Standards, it warned: "The product does not meet the
requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005." Customers who have bought either item are urged to return it to store for a full refund. The supermarket recalled its
George Baby 3-pack Rompers with Zip in all sizes up to 24 months. The outfit, described as "a pack of three pink and cream baby rompers with zips" is said to carry a risk of
"injuries". It warned: "The product presents a risk of injuries as some of the zips have sharp edges. This may lead to babies becoming scratched and injured during use.
