Dixon Ticonderoga Creativity Street Foam Pattern Rollers
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The recalled foam pattern rollers are intended for children and contain levels of lead that exceed the federal lead content ban in the rollers' handles. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.
