The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) in cooperation with Almar Sales Co. today announced a voluntary recall of about 11,000 Suave Kids Bath Sets, according to the CPSC.
“Items in the baths sets contain small parts that pose a choking hazard to young children,” according to the CPSC. “Additionally, some of the handles on the carrying case are long enough to pose a strangulation hazard. Also, the plastic carrying case poses a danger of suffocation.”“This recall involves “Suave” brand bath sets that contain a 3-in-1 shampoo, bath sponge, and various other toy animal and character bath products,” according to the CPSC. “The baths sets are packaged in brightly colored vinyl bags with a clear window. Style numbers involved in this recall are: SVK 9498, 9499, 9501, 9506, 9507 and 9508. The style numbers are located on the back and/or bottom right corner of the package, above the UPC code.”
The Bath Sets were sold at Wal-Mart stores nationwide from March 2006 through June 2006 for about $10, according to the CPSC.
Consumers should stop using these bath sets and either dispose of them or return them to the store where purchased for a full refund. For additional information, contact Almar Sales at (800) 251-2522 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or e-mail the firm at recall@almarsales.com
