The COPSC and BIBS Denmark are recalling BIBS Baby Bottle Complete Set and the BIBS Bottle Kit.  The set includes a 110 or 225 milliliter baby bottle with nipple and a rubber bumper for the bottle to rest on.  The kit has only the bumper.  The apparent issue is that, when the bottle is filled with a hot liquid, the rubber bump will become misshapen the the bottle will fall over spilling the hot contents which might create a burn hazard.  About 300 of these items were sold at a variety of retail locations and online at maighandistribution.com.  If you have these bottles, use them without the bumper.  You may also return the product to BIBS by contacting them at 1-514-543-7505 or via email at [email protected] to obtain a free mailer and a refund.  Frankly, not sure the reason for this recall.  How may parents load a baby bottle with hot liquids?  Possible that the bumper would be deformed by a trip in the dishwasher.  Seems like a “tempest in a teapot.”
