  • CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using LEHOM Baby Playpens Due to Entrapment and Suffocation Hazards; Violations of Federal Regulations for Play Yards, Phthalates and Lead; Sold Exclusively on Amazon.com

    Release Date: September 26, 2024

    Release Number: 24-376

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using and dispose of LEHOM Baby Playpens because they pose entrapment and suffocation hazards for infants.

    The LEHOM playpens violate federal safety regulations for play yards because the included basketball hoop accessory presents a head entrapment hazard and in addition, children can become entrapped beneath the mattress, posing a suffocation hazard. Also, the zippers contain levels of lead that exceed the federal lead content ban and the PVC suction cups contain levels of phthalates that exceed the federal phthalate prohibition. Lead and phthalates are toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.

    The importer, RYZ International Trading Limited, of Hong Kong, has not agreed to offer an acceptable recall remedy to consumers.

    The LEHOM playpens were sold online at Amazon.com from May 2022 through July 2023 for between $103 and $140. The playpens have gray fabric with white mesh sides, printed road and animal designs on the reversible mattress and a basketball hoop that attaches to the top rail with multi-colored balls. The playpens are labeled with “RYZ LOGISTICS INC” with model number “BPP-DG” printed on a label attached to the top rail. The playpens measure about 80 inches long, 60 inches wide and 28 inches tall.

    CPSC urges consumers to stop using and destroy all LEHOM baby playpens immediately.  To destroy the product, first disassemble the fabric cover from the frame. Cut up the play yard cover, mattress pad, and basketball hoop and then dispose of the pieces in the trash or recycling.

    Parents and caregivers are reminded:

    • The best place for an infant to sleep is on a firm, flat surface in a crib, bassinet or play yard.
    • Use a fitted sheet only and never add blankets, pillows, padded crib bumpers, or other items to an infant’s sleeping environment.
    • Infants should always be placed to sleep on their back. Infants who fall asleep in an inclined or upright position should be moved to a safe sleep environment with a firm, flat surface such as a crib, bassinet or play yard.

  • CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using Magnetic Chess Games Due to Ingestion Hazard; Violation of the Federal Safety Regulation for Magnet Toys; Sold by Zhengtongfu

    Release Date: September 26, 2024

    Release Number: 24-375

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using and dispose of Magnetic Chess Games sold by Zhengtongfu. CPSC testing determined the magnets do not comply with the requirements of the mandatory federal regulation for magnet toys and pose a risk of serious injury or death if ingested by children.

    CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller, Zhengtongfu, of China, but the firm has not agreed to recall the Magnetic Chess Games or offer a remedy to consumers.

    When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract to each other, or to another metal object, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning and death.

    CPSC estimates 2,400 magnet ingestions were treated in hospital emergency departments annually from 2017 through 2021. CPSC is aware of eight deaths since 2005 through 2021 involving the ingestion of hazardous magnets, including two outside of the United States.

    The games were sold in a blue box with the word “Magnetic” on the front and back of the box. The box may have a white sticker label with Amazon’s FN SKU: X0041CMAKH. The game includes about 20 loose black magnets, a yellow string, and a plastic drawstring storage bag.  Although marketed as a chess game, it does not contain chess pieces. The magnetic games were sold online at www.amazon.comfor about $16.

    CPSC urges consumers to stop using the magnetic chess games immediately, take them away from children, and dispose of them or take them to your local recycling facility. Do not sell or give away these hazardous magnetic games.

  • CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using ZonLi Home Baby Loungers Due to Suffocation, Fall and Entrapment Hazards; Violations of Federal Safety Regulations for Infant Sleep Products; Sold on Amazon.com

    Release Date: July 25, 2024

    Release Number: 24-320

    WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using and dispose of ZonLi Home Baby Loungers because they pose suffocation, fall and entrapment hazards for infants.

    The baby loungers violate federal safety regulations for Infant Sleep Productsbecause the sides are too low to contain the infant; the sleeping pad is too thick, posing a suffocation hazard; an infant could fall out of an enclosed opening at the foot of the lounger or become entrapped; and the loungers do not have a stand, posing a fall hazard if used on elevated surfaces. These violations create an unsafe sleeping environment for infants.

    The loungers were sold online at Amazon.com from December 2022 through February 2024 for between about $27 and $50. “ZONLI HOME” is printed on a tag sewn onto the interior of the lounger’s removable pink fabric cover. CPSC tested the pink baby lounger, and CPSC is aware ZonLi Home branded baby loungers were also sold on Amazon.com in additional fabric colors and prints including beige, mint green, natural and pink elephant.  

    CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to a seller of the ZonLi Home Baby Lounger, Jiujiangsanyinglaowufuwuyouxiangongsi, of China, doing business as Sarah-Home and Kuang JinLong, but the firm has not agreed to recall these loungers or offer a remedy to consumers. In addition, ZonLi Home baby loungers were sold by several other sellers on Amazon.com, including Thirdream, qinghua che doing business as ZONLI HOME, yongxiang wang doing business as ZoniLi Home, Viki Direct, and AmazingDealz1.

    CPSC urges consumers to stop using and destroy all ZonLi Home baby loungers immediately.  To destroy the product, first remove the fabric cover. Cut-up the lounger cover and interior sleeping pad, and then dispose of the pieces in the trash or textile recycling, in accordance with local garbage collection policies.

    Although the Infant Sleep Products regulation is applicable to products manufactured on or after June 23, 2022, these loungers do not have a required date of manufacture labeled on the product or packaging, and therefore, CPSC urges consumers to stop using all ZonLi Home baby loungers. Further, CPSC continues to advise firms to stop sale of non-compliant infant sleep products regardless of the date of manufacture.

    Parents and caregivers are reminded:

    • The best place for an infant to sleep is on a firm, flat surface in a crib, bassinet or play yard.
    • Use a fitted sheet only and never add blankets, pillows, padded crib bumpers, or other items to an infant’s sleeping environment.
    • Infants should always be placed to sleep on their back. Infants who fall asleep in an inclined or upright position should be moved to a safe sleep environment with a firm, flat surface such as a crib, bassinet or play yard.

    Report any incidents involving injury or product defect to CPSC at www.SaferProducts.gov.
