Why did PILLANI recall 25,762 nursing pillows sold on Amazon?
A U‑shaped nursing pillow sold under the PILLANI brand has been recalled because it can block an infant’s airway. About 25,762 units were sold on Amazon between April and September 2026.
The pillow in your nursery
The product is a nursing pillow. It wraps around the waist with an adjustable strap and carries a smaller pillow on top. The label sewn to the cover shows the brand name PILLANI, model number NP4351, and one of three batch codes: 202604, 202605, or 202606.
Colors and prints include cloud and stars; wild animal; white with leaf and feather; stars; pink with leaf; light blue; pink; light yellow; gray; light gray; beige; light green.
Stop using it if any of those details match.
How the hazard works
The mandatory standard for nursing pillows requires that an infant’s face cannot sink into soft surfaces that restrict airflow. These pillows fail that test. The upper pillow and the main U‑shaped body create a pocket. When a baby turns or slides, the fabric can press against the nose and mouth. The commission states the design can obstruct an infant’s breathing, posing a serious risk of injury or death from suffocation. No incidents have been reported.
What the recall asks you to do
Owners should stop using the pillow immediately. Contact PILLANI at pillanirecall@gmail.com or visit the company website and click “Recall” at the top of the page. The company will request a photo of the product. After that they will send disposal instructions and issue a full refund. The notice does not say how long the refund takes.
Sales window and scale
Amazon listed the pillows from April 2026 through September 2026. The price ranged from $30 to $40. The importer is G.M.H.L. LLP, doing business as PILLANI, based in Houston, Texas. Manufacturing took place in China. The recall covers roughly 25,762 units. Whether any remain in homes beyond the sales period is not stated.
Gaps the notice does not fill
The announcement does not explain which specific test the pillows failed. It does not describe whether the smaller top pillow detaches. It does not clarify if the waist strap plays any role in the hazard. The company’s disposal instructions have not been published yet.
