  1. No one hurt

    Made Aug 29, 2011, sent to the company Sep 20, 2011, published by CPSC Oct 12, 2011

    The product, in the report: It’s a pillow it’s a pet. Made for children to cuddle and play with.

    I purchased a Thomas the Tank Engine pillow pet for my son who sleeps with it every night. He has a specialty bed that looks like a cabin and the mattress is on the floor. He has a small night light in there because it gets dark. Last night his pillow pet hit the night light bulb and got some serious melt damage. I was shocked because one would think a product made made for a child to sleep with would be flame retardent and not melt or burn. I think a product that burns/melts from a nightlight bulb maybe is not safe for a child to sleep with. Pillow pets are sold for children to sleep and cuddle with. I shudder to think of the damage to a child should there be a home fire.

    I have the pillow pet and the night light bulb.
