High street retailer Boots has alerted customers following the recall of a popular baby sleep product over safety concerns.
The Love to Dream Sleep Machine has been removed from shop shelves after investigations revealed a potential fire hazard associated with its lithium-ion battery.
Customers who own the affected product have been urged to cease use immediately.
According to Boots, using specific charging devices that were not included with the purchase may cause the battery to overheat during charging, creating a risk of fire.
The company warned that overheating could result in serious burns or damage to property.
The recall applies to items sold between January 2, 2025, and September 3, 2026.
Only three specific batch codes are affected: 7T12TN, 7W15TN and 8P01TN.
The batch code appears on the side of the sleep machine or on the rear of the original packaging.
Consumers who have purchased the product are advised to disconnect it from any charger and store it in a secure location away from flammable materials.
Further instructions for safe disposal and information about refunds or replacements are available on the Love to Dream recall website at lovetodream.co.uk/recall.
The product should not be disposed of in regular household waste or recycling containers, as special procedures apply to lithium-ion batteries.
A second separate recall has been issued by skincare brand Simple for its Micellar Cleansing Water range.
The company is withdrawing multiple batches of the product from retailers including Tesco and Asda due to the possible presence of harmful bacteria that could lead to eye inflammation.
Affected batches include the 200ml size with codes 610041, 611641 and 615941.
The 400ml variant has nine batch codes affected: 611141, 611341, 611441, 613341, 613441, 614541, 614741 and 614841.
The largest 730ml bottles with codes 613841, 613941, 611041, 616641 and 616741 are also subject to the recall.
The batch number appears on the base of each bottle.
Simple stated that the recall applies to a limited number of products within the Kind to Skin Micellar Cleansing Water line across the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland.
The company emphasised that no other products in its range are affected by this issue.
Representatives acknowledged that product recalls can cause concern and extended apologies to affected customers.
Anyone who has purchased the product should discontinue use and contact the Consumer Careline via email to receive guidance and a refund.
Major retailers have also responded to the recalls.
Tesco instructed customers to return any affected products to stores for a full refund without requiring a purchase receipt.
The company can also be reached by telephone on 0800 146 252 for UK customers or 1800 604 060 for those in the Republic of Ireland.
