"Key Recalls of 2023: From Hazardous Goods to Meat and Poultry"
In 2023, several potentially dangerous products were recalled due to risks of injury or death, particularly for children. Recalled items included infant sleep products like baby loungers and Rock 'n Play Sleepers, magnetic ball sets that can cause serious internal damage if ingested, water beads that expand and pose a choking hazard, electronic scooters and hoverboards with fire risks, Baby Shark bath toys causing impalement injuries, Cosori Air Fryers that can overheat and catch fire, and biometric gun safes that failed to secure firearms properly. Despite recalls, some products remain available online, and past recalls have not always effectively reached consumers, leading to continued incidents and fatalities.
