Recalls Must Be Improved To date, the CPSC has issued at least 6 major recalls involving toys with small magnets totaling approximately 6.5 million units. The safety commission said people should immediately stop using the trivets and place them out of the reach of children. They were sold by QVC from October 2017 through October of 2018. The trivets have four magnets encased in silicone and come in copper, burgundy, blue, and black colors. Internal injury from magnets can pose serious lifelong health effects. The safety commission says when two or more magnets are swallowed, they can link together inside the intestines and clamp onto body tissues, causing intestinal obstructions, perforations, sepsis and death. The complicated 3D coils of stellarators can be dramatically simplified by introducing permanent magnets. The child suffered intestinal perforations and blockage, requiring surgery, the Consumer Product Safety Commission said. Tristar Products has received one report of magnets detaching from a trivet and being swallowed by a child. The trivets attach to the bottom of hot metal cookware, allowing it to be placed on tables. The recall involves Tristar Products magnetic trivets sold separately and with Copper Chef 10-Piece Cerami-Tech Nonstick Cookware Sets. (WHTM) – Magnetic trivets sold by QVC have been recalled because their powerful magnets can detach, posing an ingestion hazard to small children. ![]()
