Build-A-Bear Workshop Heartwarming Hugs Bear Recall: Important Information and Refund Details

Build-A-Bear Workshop has issued a recall for its Heartwarming Hugs Bears due to a potential choking hazard for small children. The recall was prompted by a report from the United Kingdom about a detached side zipper on the bear. The plush toy features a pouch with a removable heart filled with weighted beads that can be heated or cooled for comfort. The recall applies to bears sold between January 1 and March 6, with no reported injuries. Customers can receive a full refund for returning the bear, and the Coral Ridge Mall location in Coralville, Iowa, is included in the recall. More information and photos of the toy are available on the company's website.
