Sobeauty Inc. is recalling approximately 600 'Mag Cube' magnetic ball sets because they contain high-powered magnets that violate federal safety standards for children's toys. If a child swallows two or more of these magnets, they can attract each other through intestinal walls, causing life-threatening blockages, perforations, or sepsis. These sets, which were sold online at Walmart.com from March 2018 through December 2019, feature 216 spherical magnets in either gold or a rainbow of six colors. Consumers should immediately stop using these sets and contact Sobeauty Inc. for a full refund including shipping and taxes.
The high-powered magnets can link together inside a child's intestines if swallowed, clamping onto body tissues and leading to serious internal injuries, permanent intestinal damage, or death. While no injuries have been reported for this specific product, the CPSC has received numerous reports of children requiring surgery after ingesting similar high-powered magnets.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled magnetic balls and take them away from children. If you purchased the recalled magnetic balls for someone else, notify the recipient immediately. Consumers should contact Sobeauty Inc. for instructions on returning your product and receiving a full refund including taxes and the original shipping cost.
