Product Safety Warning Details
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using Etetoo Pull String Toys immediately. The recalled teething toys violate the mandatory standard for toys because the silicone strings are smaller and longer than permitted. The strings can reach the back of children’s throat and become lodged, posing a serious risk of respiratory distress and deadly choking hazard.
CPSC urges consumers to stop using the pull string toys immediately and dispose of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous toys.
CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller Dongguan Takatu Technology Co. Ltd, doing business as Etetoo, of China. Etetoo has not agreed to recall these activity toys or offer a remedy to consumers.
This warning involves Etetoo-branded pull string activity toys. They consist of a light blue disc shape with a light blue ball in the center and four multi-colored, silicone tentacle-looking pull strings that run through the ball. The disc has four push buttons. “Pull String Activity Toy” is printed on the front of the product packaging and “X0043JN6N3” on a label on the back.

The recalled tents’ fiberglass poles can shed fibers, posing an injury risk of skin and eye irritation.
The recalled toys violate the mandatory safety standard for toys because the mini flashlight included with the fidget spinner balls contains button cell batteries that can be easily accessed by children. If button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns, and death.
The magnets violate the mandatory safety standard for magnets because the high-powered magnets fit within CPSC’s small parts cylinder and are stronger than permitted, posing a deadly 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.
The recalled Orb Funkee squeeze toys may contain fibrous tremolite (asbestos) in the sand, which can cause adverse health issues if inhaled.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
