Why it was recalled
Stop using this product now
The sneaker display's magnets can forcefully attract, break, splinter and emit sparks, posing a laceration hazard. In addition, when two or more high-powered magnets are swallowed, either accidentally or intentionally, the ingested magnets can attract each other and become lodged in the digestive system. This can lead to perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines that can lead to infection and death.
Using this product could cause serious injury, illness or death — stop using it now.
Reports so far: The firm has received one report of an incident in the U.S. where the magnets collided and shattered during use, without injury. The firm has received seven reports of incidents in Australia where the magnets collided and shattered during use, including four minor injuries.
