Magnetic Chess Games
Hazard
The recalled magnetic chess games violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain loose magnets 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 stop using the recalled magnetic chess games immediately, take them away from children, and dispose of them. To receive a full refund, consumers will be asked to email a photo of the disposal to [email protected].
