Magnetic Fidget Sliders Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Magnet Ingestion; Violate Mandatory Standard for Toys; Sold on Amazon by PIXLABBY

What's being recalled

This recall involves PIXLABBY's 6-PCS silicone magnetic fidget sliders. The fidget sliders come in various two-tone colors, yellow/red, pink/yellow, orange/purple, blue/orange, green/blue, and red/green. Each slider has a different silicone texture on the top and bottom surfaces. The fidget sliders make a clicking sound as you slide them. The "PIXABBY" logo is on the front of the box.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The magnetic fidget sliders violate the mandatory standard for toys because they can liberate loose high-powered 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.

Incidents and injuries reported to CPSC

CPSC and the firm are aware of a report involving a child who removed the silicone casing, accessed the two small magnets inside the slider and ingested them. The child was hospitalized.

What CPSC says to do

Refund

Consumers should take the fidget sliders away from children, stop using them immediately and contact PIXLABBY for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to throw away the fidget sliders and submit a photo of the disposed toys to ah1998zxc@gmail.com to receive a refund.
