Walmart recalling doll over burn concerns

Walmart has issued a recall on 174,000 My Sweet Love / My Sweet Baby electronic baby dolls.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the doll was sold exclusively at Walmart starting in March 2012. Inside the doll is a circuit board that allows the doll to signal via babbling noises when it’s “sick.”

But the CPSC says that board can overheat, causing the surface of the doll to get hot, posing a burn hazard to the consumer.The recalled doll has a UPC code of 6-04576-16800-5 and a date code which begins with WM.

The date code is printed on the stuffed article label sewn into the bottom of the doll. Consumers are encouraged to remove the batteries and return the doll to any Walmart store for a full refund.
