Two Pull-String Teethers Recalled From Amazon — Silicone Strings Can Reach Baby's Throat

What Was Recalled

The Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled two pull-string teething toy sets sold on Amazon on July 23, 2026. Both products pose a choking and respiratory hazard to infants and should be stopped immediately.

The recalled toys are:

• CuddleCubs Creations highchair teething toy set -- colors BlueOrange and YellowOrange, sold by YouRfocus on Amazon from December 2024 through April 2026 for $15 to $19.
• Aojieni Sili Factory Pull String Teething Toy -- a silicone cylinder with six color-coded pull strings ending in spherical balls, sold on Amazon from May 2025 through April 2026 for $11 to $15.

The Hazard

Both toys violate the mandatory safety standard for toys. The silicone pull strings on each product are smaller in diameter and longer than what the standard permits. Because of these dimensions, the strings can reach the back of a child's throat and become lodged, creating a serious risk of respiratory distress and a potentially deadly choking hazard.

What to Do If You Have Either Toy

Stop using both toys immediately and take them away from children. To receive a full refund, you must destroy the toy first. Here is the process for each:

CuddleCubs Creations

Cut all silicone strings from the toy body. Write "DESTROYED" in permanent marker on the main body of the toy. Take a photo of the destroyed toy and email it to cuddlecubscreation@126.com. A full refund will be issued.

Aojieni Sili Factory

Cut all silicone strings from the toy body. Write "RECALLED" in permanent marker on the main body of the toy. Take a photo of the destroyed toy and email it to info@silifactory.com. A full refund will be issued.
