Montessori Baby Toy Sets Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Choking; Violate Mandatory Standard for Toys; Sold on Amazon by Chillife Official

What's being recalled

This recall involves the Chillife 5-in-1 Montessori Baby Toy Sets. The set comes with a pull string teether toy, circular stacking blocks, a sensory toy, a shape sorting cube with blocks and a suction cup spinner. The violative pull string teething toy has an off-white disc shape with a blue ball in the middle and six long, silicone pull strings of various colors running through the ball. There are also three free-spinning rings and soft push buttons on the disc. "Model: CHILLIFE01" is printed on the side of the product packaging.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The recalled baby toy sets contain a pull string teething toy that violates the mandatory standard for toys because the silicone strings are smaller and longer than permitted. The silicone strings can reach the back of children’s throat and become lodged, posing a risk of respiratory distress and deadly choking hazard.

Incidents and injuries reported to CPSC

CPSC is aware of four choking incidents. No medical attention was required.

What CPSC says to do

Refund

Consumers should stop using the pull string teether toys immediately, take them away from children and contact Chillife Official for a partial refund of $5.40. Consumers will be asked to destroy the toy by cutting all silicone strings and writing in permanent marker “DESTROYED” on the main body of the toy and send a photo of the destroyed toy to [email protected]. Consumers should then dispose of the destroyed product.
