The Hazard
CLASS 1 WARNING: INGESTION
Zelbuck children’s chess games are being recalled. The games have small, powerful magnets. If swallowed, these magnets can cause serious internal injuries or death. Stop using the game immediately.
None reported
Why This Happens: Technical Breakdown
The Zelbuck chess games contain small, powerful magnets that can come loose. These magnets are a danger to children if swallowed. The magnets can attract each other inside the body. They can also attract other metal objects. This can cause holes, twists, or blockages in the intestines. It can also lead to blood poisoning and death.
These chess games do not meet safety standards for toys. The magnets are too easily accessible to children. This makes them a serious ingestion hazard. The company is offering a refund to customers who return the game.
