Lovevery Slide & Seek Ball Runs Recalled for Choking Hazard

Lovevery is recalling about 47,000 Slide & Seek Ball Runs with wooden knobs because the wooden knob can detach during or after shipping, posing a choking hazard to children. The product was sold online as part of the Babbler Play Kit from June 2023 through November 2023.

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 product poses a direct choking hazard to young children (aged 13–15 months), which is a risk-of-harm condition. Although no injuries have been reported, choking is a high-severity hazard for this age group. The source explicitly states no injuries have occurred, placing this in the High category under the rubric criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Lovevery Inc. of Boise, Idaho is recalling about 47,000 units of the Slide & Seek Ball Runs with Wooden Knobs. The recalled units are wooden toys with a plastic ball ramp included in Lovevery's Babbler Play Kits for children aged 13 to 15 months. These units have a wooden knob on the door, do not have a Lovevery logo engraved on the bottom, and do not have a green sticker on the inside wall of the door with the wooden knob.

The packaging configuration can allow damage to the wooden knob during shipping, causing it to come loose and detach, which poses a choking hazard to children. Lovevery has received 33 reports of the wooden knob detaching during shipping and 6 reports of the wooden knob detaching after shipment. No injuries have been reported.

The recalled Ball Runs were sold online at Lovevery.com as part of the Babbler Play Kit from June 2023 through November 2023 for about $120 for the kit. Consumers who have a recalled ball run should immediately take it away from children and stop using it.
