Based Online Fidget Magnet Ball Toys Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Magnet Ingestion; Violate Mandatory Standard for Toys

What's recalled

This recall involves Based Online Fidget Magnet Ball Toy Sets. Each set includes four textured, silicone-covered magnet balls in white, yellow, blue and purple. Each ball is about 1.24 inches in diameter. The magnet toys come in a black fabric zippered case. There are no identifying marks on the magnet toys.

The risk

The magnet ball toys violate the mandatory standard for toys because they are loose high-powered magnets, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, they 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. None reported
