CreateOn Crayola pip-Cubes recalled after magnets pose ingestion risk
CreateOn recalled thousands of Crayola pip-Cubes sold nationwide due to loose magnets risking serious injury or death in children, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled CreateOn's Crayola pip-Cubes, magnetic building sets sold in 24-piece and 27-piece configurations at major retailers including Michael's Stores and Amazon.com.
- The recall cites loose internal magnets in CreateOn magnetic pip-Cubes that can become loose if seams separate, posing an ingestion hazard to children and causing serious digestive injuries.
- The recall notice identifies model #1000199, #1000243, #1000205, #1000250 and UPC 850067300250, with Bold Colors sets in red, green, blue, yellow and Glitter sets in purple, pink, blue, green; each cube bears a Crayola imprint.
- Anyone who bought the pip-Cubes should remove them from children and contact CreateOn for replacements, which include a pre-paid return label for the magnetic cubes.
- Consumer advocates note recalls can be slow as regulators and companies take months or years to negotiate fixes, while Teresa Murray urges weekly checks at recalls.gov citing Fisher-Price 2019 sleeper's 70 deaths.
