Kori Gey Water Elf Toy Kits
Description
This recall involves Kori Gey-branded water elf toy kits. The recalled kits are a children’s craft toy that uses colored gel dropped into water to form soft, squishy jelly-like figures. The toy kit consists of 22 bottles of water gel (12 non-sparkly and 10 sparkly), 22 molds in various shapes, a plastic strainer, a plastic jar labeled magic powder, extra magic powder packet, a paint brush, disposable gloves and a LED light with a button cell battery. The toy sets come in a plastic jar with lid. “Kori Gey” and “Water Elf Kit” are printed on the front of the toy kits.
Hazard
The recalled toy kits violate the mandatory standard for toys containing button cell batteries because the compartment that holds the batteries can be easily accessed and opened by children, posing a deadly ingestion hazard to children. When button cell and coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death.
Incidents & Injuries
None Reported
Remedy Instructions
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled toy’s light up luminous gasket (a LED light containing a button cell battery), take it away from children, and remove and properly dispose of the battery. Contact Qaniy for a full refund. Consumers should throw the toy’s gasket away and send a photo of the product in the trash to [email protected]. Note: Button cell batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
What Should You Do?
Stop using this product immediately. Contact the manufacturer for a Refund at no charge. If you experienced an injury, report it at SaferProducts.gov.
Frequently Asked Questions
Follow the consumer action instructions in the recall notice above. Most recalls require you to stop using the product and contact the manufacturer directly — either by calling the toll-free number listed in the official CPSC notice or by visiting the manufacturer's website. You generally do not need a receipt or original packaging to claim a remedy. The manufacturer is legally required to provide the remedy (Refund) at no cost to you.
If the product caused a fire or burn injury, document the incident with photos and preserve the product if it is safe to do so. Report the incident to the CPSC at SaferProducts.gov and to your local fire department. Contact the manufacturer to inform them of the incident — they are required to track and report injuries to CPSC. You may also want to consult a personal injury attorney, as fire and burn injuries caused by defective products can be grounds for a product liability claim against the manufacturer.
In most cases, no. CPSC-coordinated recall remedies are designed to be accessible without proof of purchase. Manufacturers typically ask consumers to self-certify ownership and may ask for photos of the product or its serial number. Some manufacturers request that you mail in a portion of the product (such as a cut cord or removed component) as proof of disposal. Check the specific remedy instructions for this recall for exact requirements. If you registered your product at the time of purchase, the process is usually even simpler.
If the original manufacturer has gone out of business, the recall remedy may no longer be available through them. In this case, contact CPSC directly at 1-800-638-2772 or cpsc.gov for guidance. If the brand was acquired by another company, the acquiring company may have assumed recall obligations. In some cases where a remedy is unavailable, CPSC advises consumers to safely dispose of the product. If you were injured by the product of a defunct company, consult a product liability attorney — parent companies, distributors, and retailers may still bear liability in some circumstances.
