November 20, 2008: ImagiPLAY Bead Maze Recall

by BabyZone Editors

Recall Reason

Three bead mazes were included in this recall; the image here represents just one.

According to the US Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC), ImagiPLAY, of Boulder, Colorado, is voluntarily recalling about 500 of its bead maze toys. Though no incidents or injuries have been reported, the trees on the toys can detach, exposing a metal screw. This poses a laceration hazard to young children.

Manufactured in the United States, these bead mazes were sold by toy retailers nationwide from August 2008 through October 2008 for about $13.

Whom to Contact

Consumers should immediately take the recalled toys away from children and return them to the retail store where purchased for a full refund. For more information call ImagiPLAY at 1-800-882-0217 between 8 AM and 5 PM PT, Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at www.ImagiPLAY.com.
