The FORT is recalling about 13,250 children's play tents because the magnets used to connect the foam cushions can dislodge from their pouches. The product consists of 12 polyurethane foam cushions in various shapes like squares, half-moons, and arches covered in synthetic leather fabric. There have been 17 reports of loose or broken magnets, including laceration injuries to two adults and a pinched finger to a child. Consumers should stop using the tents immediately and dispose of them, as the company is no longer in business and cannot provide a refund or repair.
Magnets that become loose pose a significant choking hazard to children and can cause internal injuries if multiple magnets are swallowed. The sharp or loose magnets have already caused lacerations to two adults and a pinching injury to one child.
CPSC urges consumers to dispose of recalled children's play tents and NOT to resell or donate them. It is a violation of federal law to sell or distribute recalled products. The firm is no longer in business, so there is no remedy for consumers.
