Pillows sold at Costco being recalled

Advertiser Staff

A set of pillows sold at certain Costco Wholesale Corp. stores are being recalled because they contain small metal fragments in the fiber-fill.

The Consumer Products Safety Commission said about 120,000 units of the Cuddly Comfort Pillows were being recalled and that people should stop using the pillows. The metal fragments were the result of a mechanical breakdown in the manufacturing process in China and may cause abrasions or cuts.

The pillows were sold in packs of two, with each pillow measuring 20 inches by 26 inches. Only the pillows with the Registration No. PA-27156(CA) are involved in the recall. The number and the worlds "Sleep Innovations" are on the pillows' tag.

The safety commission said people with the pillows should return them to a Costco store for a full refund. The pillows were sold from February and June 2008 for about $20.
