Target is recalling about 204,000 Pillowfort Weighted Blankets after two children reportedly became trapped in the blankets and died by suffocation in April. According to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CSPC), two other children have also been trapped in the blankets. If you have these blankets, you should stop using them immediately.

The recalled blankets were sold exclusively at Target between December 2018 and September 2022. The blankets come in eight prints or colors, and the item numbers are 097-02-0140 (Unicorn – White), 097-02-0148 (Space Navy), 097-02-0361 (Pink), 097-02-0363 (Blue), 097-02-0364 (Gray), 097-02-1603 (Buffalo Plaid – Red), 097-02-3904 (Blue Constellation) and 097-02-3905 (Unicorn – Pink). These numbers can be found on the fabric tag attached to the removable covers of the blankets. 

According to the CPSC, young children can become trapped and die by suffocation by unzipping and crawling inside the blankets. 

If you have these blankets, you can contact Target for a refund.
