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: Scored 3 under the risk-of-harm criterion: the record describes an accessible button cell battery ingestion hazard to children, with no injuries reported.
Plain-English summary
This CPSC recall involves Dresbe LED Christmas Headbands. The record states they were sold as a two-pack of novelty headbands, one red headband with candy cane attachments and one green headband with a Christmas tree attachment, each containing three button cell batteries to power LED lights, with "HB-052" and "DRESBE LED Christmas Headband (2pc)" printed on labels.
The recalled headbands violate the mandatory standard for consumer products with button cell and coin batteries because the button cell batteries in the headbands can be accessed easily by children, posing an ingestion hazard. The record states the packaging and product also do not have the warnings required under Reese's Law, and that when button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death.
The record lists about 250 units affected. They were sold on Amazon.com from March 2024 through June 2025 for about $13. No injuries or incidents have been reported.
Consumers should stop using the recalled headbands immediately and contact Dresbe for information on how to properly dispose of the product, emailing a photograph of disposal to the address given in the notice to receive a refund. The record notes that button cell batteries are hazardous and should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
