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

What's being recalled

This recall involves the Lterfear Multifunction Pounding Game, model No. D888. The wooden multifunction pounding game includes four games: whack-a-mole, fishing, xylophone, and carrot cutting. The toy has a xylophone, gears, a clock, holes to insert various fruit shapes, and "moles" for pounding. The toy is sold with accessories, including xylophone mallets, a fishing rod, a pounding mallet, four wooden fish, four wooden carrots, wooden fruit and wooden knives. There are no markings on the product.

The problem, in CPSC's words

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.

Incidents and injuries reported to CPSC

None reported.
