On 7/21/12 we purchased a child's Disney/Pixar slumber sack/sleeping bag 30x54 (zips closed to form a "bag") for our 4 year old grandson, for when he stays overnight at our house. On 7/21/12, the first time he used it he went to bed with the sleeping bag. About 10 minutes after lights out, I checked to see if he was asleep yet and I didn't see his head, so I turned on the lights to see where he was and he was burrowed head first all the way into the bottom of the sleeping bag, (not with his head out the top of the bag as it should be, but totally upside down in the bag). Then he had apparently had rolled over so he was twisted tightly inside the sack. I had to roll him over to untwist and then unzip the bag to get him out. The fabric is a tightly woven silky material and is insulated with a layer with fiber fill inside, so it has three layers of fabric (front, inside and back). It's made to keep the cold air out, so obviously it's not porous and not much air gets through it. Our grandchild is a heavy, heavy sleeper, so apparently he didn't wake up when he got hot & sweaty. When I saw that he was upside down in the bag I immediately, frantically unzipped and untwisted the bag to get him out, he was soaking wet (sweating), pale and very lethargic. I believe if he'd been in there longer he would have suffocated. This is very dangerous for a child and poses a serious danger for suffocation. If he had been in there longer I think he would have probably passed out, suffocated and we wouldn't have found him until the next morning. This would be equally dangerous for a toddler or smaller child who also might crawl inside while playing. This sleeping bag, which is geared for children (Disney Cars/Pixar design on fabric) should be recalled from the market immediately. It is manufactured by Idea Nuova, Inc,.

I was camping with the NEMO Forte 20 Sleeping Bag - Men's. I placed a high powered flashlight on the bag and it began to burn. This happened a few times and I found it alarming. Fortunately, I was not injured and there was no significant property damage.

The velcro straps wrapped around my child's neck during the night.

I did not buy this product; however after reading the reviews and seeing the warnings on the tag, I felt an obligation to report the item. Included is one of the reviews from Amazon: It is a very cute design, my little nephew would have probably loved it. BUT... it has a tag on it that says, "WARNING CONTAINS LEAD!" Why would Walmart sell such a thing?!? It's going back. No wonder it was on clearance for $5.

The consumer saw some sleeping bags in a local retailer and they had the warning: Contains lead, may be harmful if eaten or chewed...Complies with federal standards. The words cancer and reproductive harm was listed on the product and it had Prop-65 listed on it. The consumer does not believe that any lever of lead is safe for children and that these products should either be removed or looked into further. She contacted the retailer and the representative that she spoke with told her that they would forward the information to the appropriate person/department. The consumer took pictures of these items, but did not purchase them. Please see attached pictures for more information I can not stress enough these items contain Lead and are made for small children that chew everything! There is no age on these items and even if there were _ I believe they would be used by young children

We ordered a monogrammed Spiderman Sleeping Bag as a Christmas gift for our Grandson on 10/28/2013 from Pottery Barn Kids and had it shipped to our daughter’s home in San Diego, CA. We arrived at their home on Dec. 22 and my wife wrapped the unopened box that contained the sleeping bag on Christmas Eve. Our four-year old Grandson ([REDACTED]) was very pleased when he opened the wrapped sleeping bag and immediately went into the bag head first to try it out (his Dad had to point out to him that we enter sleeping bags feet first). He got in and out of the sleeping bag several times. At one point, after all of the gifts had been opened, he was in the sleeping bag and showed all of us a pair of surgical steel manicure scissors that he found IN THE SLEEPING BAG. His family does not own scissors of this type which means they didn't end up in the sleeping bag due to our negligence. My wife ([REDACTED] Grandmother) called Pottery Barn Kids on December 27 at about 12:20 pm to report this incident. I also sent an email to this company describing the incident. Neither of us have received a response.
