Consumer Product Recall: Magnetic Chess Games
Yiwushixiuxiangfushiyouxiangongsi ("Yiwu Xiu Xiang Garment Co., Ltd.") dba Kaiwenshangpin, of China · February 26, 2026
Reason for Recall
The recalled magnetic chess games violate the mandatory standard for toys because they contain loose magnets posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death.
Product Description

The games are sold in a blue box with the words "Magnetic", "Magnetic Chess Piece" and "Intelligence Strategy Game" on the front of the box. The game includes 20 loose magnets, a yellow string, gameplay instructions and a plastic storage bag.
