Mark of Fifth Avenue Children's Robes Recalled Due to Violation of Federal Flammability Standard and Burn Hazard

Recall Insight

This CPSC action (record #22027) was formally reported on December 8, 2021. It is classified under Moderate severity, with a current status of Active. Mark of Fifth Avenue, of Harriman, N.Y. is listed as the recalling firm. Federal records indicate About 10,000 units are affected.

The documented reason for this recall is: The children's robes fail to meet the federal flammability standards for children's sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injuries to children. Distribution information was not included in the agency filing, so consumers should assume broad potential exposure until the firm publishes point-of-sale details. The remedy documented by the agency is: Consumers should immediately take the recalled children's robes away from children and contact Mark of Fifth Avenue. Consumers can receive a full refund of the purchase price of the garment by cuttin… — consumers holding this product should act on that instruction rather than relying on general guidance.

To put this record in context, PlainRecalls indexes 83,949 recalls across the FDA, CPSC, NHTSA and USDA FSIS going back to 1995. Within the same product category, the database holds 6 closely related recalls, of which 6 were also issued by CPSC. That clustering is a signal — repeated actions in a narrow category often indicate a systemic quality-control issue, a supplier-wide contamination, or a design defect that has propagated across product lines. This recall is roughly 5 years old; older recalls can remain relevant because many units enter resale, rental, and secondary-market channels where the original warning never reaches the end user.
