Sleepsack flowers can detach
What: HALO SleepSack wearable blankets with pink satin flowers. They are white cotton with pink-edged ruffles and a pink satin rose embellishment on the front.

Only SleepSack products with GPU numbers 2701, 2781, 2886, 2887, 3007, 3035, and 3142 printed on a neck label under the primary neck label are included in the recall.

Tea kettle poses burn hazard
What: Chefmate 2-quart tea kettles with a black enamel finish and a solid black resin handle. The Chefmate logo is stamped on the bottom of the aluminum tea kettle. They were sold at Target stores and at Target.com from January 2006 through May 2013.
Why: Steam can travel up the handle, or water can spill from the spout, posing a burn hazard to the consumer. In addition, the leaking steam can cause the kettle to fail to whistle. If water completely evaporates from the kettle, the aluminum bottom can melt onto the stove and pose a burn hazard.
