Zuru is recalling about 7.5 million Robo Alive Junior Baby Shark and Mini Baby Shark bath toys. These toys have a hard plastic top fin that can cause impalement, cuts, or puncture wounds if a child sits or falls on it. The recall covers full-size Sing & Swim toys (model #25282) and Mini Swimming toys (models #7163, #7175, #7166, or #25291) in yellow, pink, and blue. Consumers should stop using the toys immediately and contact Zuru for a refund in the form of a prepaid virtual Mastercard.
Children using these toys in a bathtub or wading pool can slip and fall or sit directly onto the shark's hard plastic top fin. This defect has already resulted in 12 reports of injuries to children, including impalement and deep cuts to the genital, facial, and rectal areas, nine of which required medical attention or stitches.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bath toys and contact Zuru for a full refund of $14 for each full-size bath toy or $6 for each mini-size bath toy, in the form of a prepaid virtual Mastercard. Consumers should disable the tail fin (by cutting it on the full-size bath toy or by bending it on the mini-size bath toy), mark the body of the shark bath toy with the word "recalled" and the unique code provided during registration for the recall, then upload a photo of the product, showing it is disabled and marked, at https://www.recallrtr.com/bathshark. Upon receipt of the photo, Zuru will issue a refund to purchasers.
