Summary

Crown Darts UK is recalling approximately 19,400 lawn dart sets because they are a banned product in the United States and pose a severe risk of skull punctures and other serious injuries. These darts, sold in sets of 4, 8, and 10 or as individual spares, feature the 'CROWN DARTS' logo and were sold in various colors including red, blue, yellow, purple, pink, orange, ivory, and green. Because the manufacturer is unable to conduct a traditional recall, consumers must immediately stop using these darts and follow specific destruction and disposal steps. These items were sold online at crowndarts.com between May 2004 and June 2020.

Risk

Lawn darts are designed with weighted metal points that can cause deep puncture wounds or penetrate the skull if they strike a person, particularly children. While no injuries have been reported for this specific brand, the product type is banned due to its potential for fatal or life-altering injuries.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify your product by checking for the 'CROWN DARTS' logo printed on the polypropylene flights (fins) of the approximately 12-inch long darts.
  2. Immediately stop using the lawn darts and keep them out of the reach of children.
  3. Destroy the darts to ensure they cannot be used again; the CPSC suggests using a saw to cut the plastic fins and metal components apart.
  4. Dispose of the destroyed dart components in your regular household trash.
  5. For more information, contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772 or visit www.cpsc.gov.
