The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a warning about Chinese seller Doraemon’s magnetic ball sets, stating that the loose, hazardous magnets have resulted in seven deaths from ingestion. The CPSC found that the magnets were smaller and stronger than permitted under federal regulations. The toys were sold on Amazon for about $25 and have led to an estimated 2,400 magnet ingestions treated in hospitals from 2017 through 2021. The seller, Doraemon, has not agreed to recall the magnetic ball sets or offer a remedy to consumers. The article provided a statement from the CPSC and noted that the seller could not be reached for comment.
