Plain-English summary

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Hebron Imports Inc. of Chicago, Illinois, are voluntarily recalling approximately 925 Pom Pom Drum toys (model #808) imported from China. The recall is being conducted because small plastic balls inside the drum can separate and release small parts that present a choking hazard to young children.

The recalled toys are clear plastic drums with a white bottom, encircled by white metal bands with purple, yellow, pink, green, and orange shapes. Each drum contains ten plastic balls in red, yellow, green, blue, and pink, and comes with a green and orange plastic stand and two green plastic drumsticks. The toys are packaged in a cardboard box labeled in part, "POM POM DRUM MADE IN CHINA NO. 808." These drums were sold between January 1993 and December 1994 for $3.99 each at various discount stores in Illinois and Wisconsin, including Econo, Blue Island, Elgin D/C Land, Famous Outlet, Discountland, LoBuc Discount, and Super Outlet.

Neither CPSC nor Hebron Imports Inc. is aware of any injuries involving these toy drums. Consumers who have the Pom Pom Drum toys are urged to take them away from children immediately and return the toy to the store where it was purchased for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact Hebron Imports Inc. at (773) 202-0100.
