Haba is voluntarily recalling a number of wooden baby toys. The recall consists of two parts. No injuries occurred from either parts of the lists. First part of the recall has all the items which incidents were reported; the second part consists of items that received no reports, but Haba has chosen “out of an abundance of caution and concern for the safety of our consumer’s children”.

One of the items on the 2nd part of the list is Miro Clutching Toy. The Miro was redesigned and released late last fall. The redesigned Miro has a metal bell instead of a plastic bell. To check whether your Miro has a plastic or metal bell, look in the center of the toy. If the blue bell has 10 small holes in it, then it is the plastic one and you should follow the instructions on Haba’s site and fill out the Recall Form and send the item back. If the blue bell has one hole and a slit then it is the metal bell, in which case the item is safe, and has been tested and approved by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

If you still have further questions regarding this recall, please contact Habermaass Corp. at (800) 468-6873 ext. 107 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. EST Monday through Friday, or visit the Haba recall page at www.HABAusa.com/safety.

In cooperation with the Consumer Products Safety Commission, HABA has issued a voluntary recall of a select group of HABA items containing glued on mirrors and/or prisms.

The wooden rattles, pacifier holders, and stroller toys contain small pieces including glued on mirrors and/or prisms that can detach, posing a choking hazard to infants. The head of the ladybug puzzle pieces also poses a choking hazard.

Please visit the HABA Recall page and the CPSC Haba Recall page for more information.
