Sandford Family Croquet Sets
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The paint or surface coating on the red mallet, blue mallet, red hoop, and winning post contain levels of lead that exceed the federal lead paint ban, posing a lead poisoning hazard. In addition, the coating on the red and blue mallets contains levels of regulated phthalates that exceed the prohibition of specific phthalates. Lead and phthalates are toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health issues.
The Recall Registry rates this highest risk — Lead exposure risk.
