Warning to Kansas City Parents: Target and USCPSC Recall Circo Space Camp Tents

Building tents and forts are a staple of nearly every childhood.  I have to be honest though, they never had cool tents like this when we were little.  Then again, based on the latest product recall, maybe we were better off using cardboard boxes and sheets to build our forts when we were kids.

 

The U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission in joint task with Target stores have issued a dangerous product recall on 1,500 Circo Children's Space Camp Combo packs have been recalled because the floor of the tent poses a flame hazard.

In an official statement, the CPSC explains the dangerous product recall:

“The recall involves one model of the Circo Space Combo pack, which includes a children’s tent, sleeping bag, backpack and a headlamp. The tent is green and dark blue with planets, stars and figures printed on it. The packing box has the UPC number: 490911500926, DPCI: 091-15-0092. The product was sold exclusively at Target stores nationwide and online at www.target.com.”

If you or someone you know purchased one of these child's tens between September 2010 through October 2010 , contact the manufacturer immediately.
