Official recall record

Maitys Drinkware Charms

What the authority reported

This recall involves Maitys' drinkware charms. The recalled magnetic charms were sold in sets of 400 multicolored charms with magnetic backings used to attach the charm to glass drinkware. "Maitys" is printed on the front of the charm's box. Hazards: The recalled magnetic drinkware charms violate the mandatory standard for magnets because they contain loose magnets posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death.

What to do

Follow the instructions in the official notice — recall remedies (refund, repair, replacement, or disposal) are defined by the issuing authority and the responsible business, and they differ per recall. Do not rely on summaries, including this one.
