H&M Recalls Children's Hooded Dressing Gowns Across Australia Due to Safety Non-Compliance

H&M has recalled multiple batches of children's hooded dressing gowns across Australia due to non-compliance with mandatory safety standards. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) previously issued a recall for this item in June last year, with additional affected batches now identified.

Safety Risk

The ACCC stated that the dressing gowns pose a risk of serious burn injuries if exposed to a heat or flame source.

Consumers may not be aware of this risk and are advised to immediately stop using the product, placing it away from any heat sources.

Non-Compliance

The hoodies do not comply with the mandatory standard for children's nightwear because they lack the required warning label. This label is intended to inform customers about potential risks associated with wearing the garment.

Affected Products

The affected hoodies, manufactured in Indonesia, were sold nationwide between July 2022 and August 2025. The updated recall includes the following product numbers and colors:

  • Product number 1237612: Off-white Pink Beige
  • Product number 1198589: Light pink with red hearts; Off-white with black hearts
  • Product number 1237614: Beige with Miffy design
  • Product number 0997998: Off-white unicorn; Off-white and black panda; Beige koala; Green dinosaur; Orange fox; Off-white monster

Consumer Action

Consumers possessing any of these items can return them to any H&M store in Australia for a full refund, with no receipt required. For additional information, customers can contact H&M at 1300 401 300 or via customerservice.au@hm.com.
