About 12,461 children’s loungewear sets sold under the Sweet Cubby brand are being recalled after testing found the garments fail to meet the mandatory flammability standard for children’s sleepwear, creating a burn hazard that could lead to serious injury or death. The recall, announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission on September 10, 2026, covers the company’s entire lineup of two-piece loungewear sets sold to families across the country.

The recalled sets were marketed as everyday loungewear rather than sleepwear, but their sale in children’s sizing and casual styling raised concerns that they could still end up being worn to bed, prompting scrutiny under the federal flammability rule that governs garments intended for sleep.
What Products Are Being Recalled?
The recall applies to all Sweet Cubby children’s loungewear sets. Each set includes a short-sleeved shirt paired with matching shorts, and the sets were produced in a range of colors for children’s sizes 5-6Y through 13-14Y. Consumers can identify the recalled garments by checking the sewn-in neck label and seam label, both of which are printed with ‘Batch No.: 272779’ along with the garment size.
Why Was This Recall Issued?
The loungewear sets violate the mandatory flammability standard for children’s sleepwear enforced under the Flammable Fabrics Act. This standard exists specifically because sleepwear-style garments worn by children can come into contact with open flames or heat sources, such as stovetops, candles or space heaters, and fabrics that do not meet the standard can ignite and burn rapidly. That poses a real risk of serious burn injuries or death to a child wearing the product. No incidents or injuries had been reported to CPSC as of the recall announcement.

Where Were These Products Sold?
The loungewear sets were sold exclusively online at SHEIN.com between June 2025 and May 2026, at prices ranging from $8 to $12 per set. The products were imported and manufactured in China by Hong Kong Xuheyuan Trading Co., Ltd, doing business as Sweet Cubby.
Because the sets were sold only through an e-commerce platform with nationwide shipping, the affected garments could be in homes anywhere in the United States rather than concentrated in any single region.
What Should You Do?
Consumers who purchased the recalled loungewear sets should stop using them right away and remove them from children immediately. Sweet Cubby is offering a full refund to affected customers.
- Stop using the loungewear set and keep it away from children.
- Contact Sweet Cubby by email at SweetCubby@163.com to arrange a refund.
- Cut the destroyed loungewear set in half as instructed by the company.
- Take a photo of the destroyed product and send it to SweetCubby@163.com.
- Dispose of the destroyed garment once the photo has been submitted.
