What is the hazard with Christmas-themed Magnetic Chess Games?
Christmas-themed Magnetic Chess Games was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. 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. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled magnetic chess games, take them away from children and contact Yiruikeji2024 for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to send a photo of the disposed product to yirui2024@yeah.net. Sold at: Online at Amazon.com from November 2024 through November 2025 for about $7.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
How many units are affected?
About About 5,300 units of Christmas-themed Magnetic Chess Games are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
