Children’s Sleepwear Recalled Because of Burn Hazard

Fashionviews, Inc. has announced a recall of about 4,000 nightgowns, two-piece shirt/pant sets and other styles of pajamas because the garments fail to meet federal flammability standards for children's sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injury to children.  The recall involves all styles of P.Jamas brand name children's sleepwear sold in children's sizes XS through XL.  The sleepwear is 100 percent cotton woven or knit fabrics.

The sleepwear was sold at boutique shops nationwide and on the company’s Web site from January 2006 through October 2010 for between about $50 and $100. 

Consumers should immediately stop using the pajamas.

Messa & Associates has handled many burn and fire cases caused by defective products throughout the states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey which resulted in significant injuries and death.  Our attorneys have been successful in litigating cases and obtaining substantial awards in these matters including a $2.225 million dollar settlement for an 11-year-old girl who suffered burns when her nightgown was ignited by a space heater and a $3.7 million dollar settlement for the death of a Philadelphia child due to an apartment fire.  If you or a loved one has suffered serious injuries as a result of using Fashionview P.Jamas sleepwear, please contact us at 1-877-MessaLaw.
