What's being recalled

Manhattan Toy® Quixel™ baby rattles

Units: About 8,300 in the U.S. and 4,100 in Canada

This recall includes the Manhattan Toy® Quixel™ baby rattle. The plastic rattles have four, colored arches (red, orange, green and blue) with sliding beads on each of the arches. The arches are held together by a single string of red, white and blue elastic. The rattle arches measure about 5 inches in diameter. The product was sold with or without a box. "Manhattan Toy" is printed on one of the arches.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The colored arches can break, creating a small part which poses a choking hazard to small children.

Incidents and injuries reported to CPSC

Manhattan Group has received four reports of the rattles breaking. No injuries have been reported.
