Trendset Originals LLC Girls' Hooded Jackets with Drawstrings Due to Strangulation and Entanglement Hazards
The notice asks people to return it — see below for how.
What’s wrong

The Recall Registry rates this highest risk — Strangulation risk.

Consumers should immediately remove the drawstrings from the jackets to eliminate the hazard. Consumers can also return the jackets to any Burlington Coat Factory store for a full refund.
