The Tommee Tippee super soft dummies for children aged 12 months and over have been recalled over safety fears. The product was recently relaunched with a new design, but parents have been concerned about the potential problem of the safety shield being smaller than before. The negative feedback prompted an investigation into the design of the dummies.
Tommee Tippee and the ACCC believe the new design does not meet the mandatory Australian safety standards, hence the recall has been put in place.
“The safety and reliability of this product is however our overriding concern, so we hope our customers will understand why we have decided that recalling the product is the right thing to do.”
Parents who have purchased the dummies can take them back to the store they bought them from for a full refund.
The dummies were sold at Woolworths, Coles, Big W and Chemist Warehouse.
The older design that was available in May have not been recalled, nor have the dummies for ages 0-6 months and 6-12 months.
