What is the hazard with Zen Fidget Magnetic Ball Sets?
Zen Fidget Magnetic Ball Sets was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The recalled magnetic balls violate the mandatory standard for toys because they are loose high-powered magnets, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, they 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. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should stop using the recalled magnet ball toys immediately, take them away from children and dispose of them. Sold at: Promotional free item received by consumers from December 2025 through February 2026.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
How many units are affected?
About About 1,000 units of Zen Fidget Magnetic Ball Sets are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
