ABC Trading Recalls Children's Toys Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Battery Ingestion; Violates Mandatory Standard for Toys
Description
This recall involves toy headbands and electronic pet cages. The toy headband, model 6300RP, is plastic and has a small push button on top of the bow to activate the lights in the bow. The bow is pink with white polka dots. The dinosaur toy, model 8266 (ZH998-22), is a silver plastic cage with a blue bottom, and contains a red dinosaur and a yellow egg inside the cage. The bird toy, model ZH998-23, is a plastic cage with a pink top and bottom and contains a blue bird inside the cage.
Hazard
The recalled children's toys violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain button cell batteries and the compartments that hold the batteries can be easily accessed by children, posing a deadly ingestion hazard to children. When button cell and coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the children's toys immediately and contact ABC Trading for a refund. Consumers will be asked to take a photo of the disposed products in the trash and email the photo to recallabc@gmail.com to receive a full refund of the retail price.
