What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (choking/aspiration hazard) where injury has not yet been reported, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria in the rubric.

Plain-English summary

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is recalling approximately 1,000 pacifiers decorated with crystals. The crystals were glued to the pacifier's handle and guard and were sold by various third-party vendors on platforms such as eBay and Etsy between June 2006 and March 2007. The products were advertised as containing Swarovski crystals, though Swarovski does not manufacture or endorse these items.

The recall is due to the risk that the crystals can separate easily from the pacifier. This separation creates an aspiration and ingestion hazard for young children who may put the pacifiers in their mouths. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

Consumers should immediately take these pacifiers away from young children. To obtain a full refund, consumers should contact the specific firm where the product was purchased for instructions. The recall involves products sold by five specific distributors: Dara Linda's Baby Bling and Jewelry Design, Bling Toes, Baby Bling Things, PeaNaPod Bling and Accessories, and MJM Crystal Designs.
