Little Bambino Tricycles Recalled for Lead Paint Violation and Poisoning Risk

Thesaurus Global Marketing is recalling Little Bambino tricycles because lead levels in the paint and components exceed federal bans, posing a poisoning risk to young children.

What this means for you

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 (lead poisoning) where injury has not yet been reported, which aligns with the High severity criteria in the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Thesaurus Global Marketing Inc. is recalling Little Bambino 4 in 1 canopy children's tricycles. The recall involves approximately 370 units sold exclusively at Amazon.com from October 2018 through June 2019 for between $97 and $130. The tricycles were sold in blue, pink, or red and feature a back handle, elongated back rest, basket, canopy, and bell. Model BW204 and specific UPC codes are found on the product packaging.

The recall is due to a violation of the Federal Lead Paint Ban and the federal lead content ban. The paint on the canopy's frame contains levels of lead that exceed the federal lead paint ban, and tricycle components contain levels of lead that exceed the federal lead content ban. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health issues. No injuries have been reported.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled tricycles and take them away from children. They should contact Thesaurus Global Marketing for a full refund, including the cost of shipping. Amazon is contacting all known purchasers directly. Consumers can also reach the company via toll-free phone, email, or online contact form.
