Magnetic chess games sold in a blue box labeled “Magnetic,” “Magnetic Chess Piece,” and “Intelligence Strategy Game,” containing 20 loose magnets, a yellow string, gameplay instructions and a plastic storage bag, are recalled. They were recalled because the small, loose, strong magnets violate the mandatory toy standard and pose an ingestion hazard that can cause perforations, blockage, blood poisoning or death; consumers should stop using them, take them away from children, dispose of them, and email a photo of the disposal to Kaiwenshangpinrecall@outlook.com for a full refund.

What's being recalled

This recall involves magnetic chess games with magnets that are small, loose and separable with a strong magnetic flux. The games are sold in a blue box with the words "Magnetic", "Magnetic Chess Piece" and "Intelligence Strategy Game" on the front of the box. The game includes 20 loose magnets, a yellow string, gameplay instructions and a plastic storage bag.

Manufactured in: China.

The 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.

Incidents and injuries: None reported

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 Kaiwenshangpinrecall@outlook.com.
