More Injuries Prompt JAKKS Pacific to Reannounce Spa Kit Recall

GDA Staff -- Gifts and Dec, 10/15/2010 5:29:26 PM

Washington, DC - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with JAKKS Pacific, is reannouncing the Recalled Spa Kit recall of 516,000 Spa Factory Aromatherapy Fountain & Bath Benefits Kits. Consumers should immediately take the toy's jars and caps away from children and dispose of any jar lids without vent holes. Consumers can contact JAKKS Pacific at (877) 875-2557 to receive free jar lids with vent holes.

The product was originally recalled in January 2009. However since that time, there have been additional injuries caused by pressure from the buildup of carbon dioxide in unvented jars of Bath Bombs/Balls or Bath Fizzies. The unvented lids can blow off, posing explosion and projectile hazards as well as property damage, and eye irritation due to citric acid. As of January 2009, CPSC had received 88 reports of exploding jars, including 13 injuries to children. Since that time, CPSC has received 12 additional reports of exploding unvented jars of JAKKS' Bath Bombs/Balls or Bath Fizzies, including 13 additional reported injuries.
