Product Name: Sneaker Basel Double Magnetic Levitation Displays
Recall Description:

This recall involves two models of Culture Kings’ Sneaker Basel Double Magnetic Levitation Displays used to showcase floating pairs of sneakers at home by consumers. Model CXF-22, Magnetic Levitation Sneaker Display 2, has a black or black/white color combination rectangular frame. Model CXF-24B, Stackable Magnetic Levitation Sneaker Display, has an uppercase I-shaped black frame. The displays have LED lighting and were sold with or without a remote control. Both models came with two magnets, counterweight beads and a power adaptor. The Culture Kings logo appears on the side of the display. Only displays that levitate two sneakers are included in this recall.

Hazard Description:

The sneaker display’s magnets can forcefully attract, break, splinter and emit sparks, posing a laceration hazard. In addition, when two or more high-powered magnets are swallowed, either accidentally or intentionally, the ingested magnets can attract each other and become lodged in the digestive system. This can lead to perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines that can lead to infection and death.
