- Hazard
- The recalled magnetic building cubes contain magnets that can become loose if the cubes break or open, posing a magnet 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.
- Remedy
- Consumers should stop using the recalled magnetic building cubes immediately and contact Yi Suen Commerce for a full refund. Consumers will be provided with a pre-paid label to return the recalled magnetic cubes to receive a refund.
