Pounding Toys Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Magnet Ingestion Hazard; Violate Mandatory Standard for Toys; Sold on Amazon by Findriver and Weeksome

Hazard

The recalled pounding toys violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain high-powered magnets, which can detach, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning, and death.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled pounding toys and contact Findriver to receive a full refund. Consumers should write "RECALLED" on the base of the product with permanent marker, throw the product away, and send a photo of the disposed product to Findriverpoundingtoysrecall@outlook.com.
