About 2,657 seven-piece baby rattle and teether sets sold on SHEIN for about $10 are being recalled because their purple and orange knobs can come off. Federal regulators say the sets violate the small parts ban for children under 3.
SHEIN Distribution Corporation is recalling about 2,657 Baby Rattle and Teether Toy Sets because purple and orange knobs can detach and pose a choking hazard to young children, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced Thursday, Nov. 12.
The sets were sold only online at US.Shein.com from November 2025 through July 2026 for about $10. They were made in China and imported by SHEIN Distribution Corporation of Los Angeles.
CPSC said the sets violate the federal small parts ban because they are intended for children under 3 years old. The knobs that come loose pose "a deadly choking hazard to young children," the agency said.
No injuries have been reported, according to the recall notice. The recall number is 27-083.
What does the recalled SHEIN rattle set look like?
Each set includes seven toys in pastel colors and a variety of shapes. The photos CPSC posted show the toys stored in a pink plastic carrying case with a clear lid and a "Baby Rattle" label on the packaging.
To check whether you have one, look for SKU sk25070936134444119. CPSC said the SKU is printed in the upper right corner of a label on the product packaging.
The hazard involves the purple and orange knobs, which can detach from the toys, according to CPSC.
What should parents do with the recalled toy sets?
CPSC and SHEIN gave these steps:
Stop using the toy sets immediately.
Take them away from children.
Contact SHEIN for a refund.
Confirm disposal. SHEIN will ask you to affirm that you threw the toy sets away before it issues the refund.
The remedy is a refund. The notice does not list a replacement or repair option.
How do you contact SHEIN about the recall?
SHEIN listed three ways to reach the company:
Phone: toll-free at 833-853-8668, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. PT, Monday through Friday
Email: uscsteam@shein.com
Online: us.shein.com/product-recalls/list, or click "Product Recalls" at the bottom of the us.shein.com homepage
What is the small parts ban?
The small parts ban is a federal rule, found at 16 C.F.R. part 1501. It covers toys and other children's products intended for children under 3 years old.
Under the rule, those products cannot contain small parts that present a choking, aspiration or ingestion hazard. CPSC tests parts with a "small parts cylinder," which is sized to approximate the fully expanded throat of a child under 3.
Parts that break off during CPSC's use-and-abuse testing also count. That is why knobs that can detach from a toy fall under the ban, even if the toy is larger when it is in one piece.
Has SHEIN recalled other baby toys this year?
Yes. This is at least the third SHEIN recall of toys for babies and toddlers since September, according to CPSC records:
Sept. 3, 2026: About 963 Spiral Toys, sold for $6 to $16, recalled because they contain small balls and violate the small ball ban for children under 3.
Sept. 17, 2026: About 644 Pull and Chew Montessori Teething Toys, sold for about $10, recalled because their silicone strings were smaller and longer than the toy standard allows and could reach the back of a child's throat.
Nov. 12, 2026: About 2,657 Baby Rattle and Teether Toy Sets, sold for about $10.
No injuries were reported in any of the three recalls.
What other toy recalls did CPSC announce this week?
CPSC also announced a recall Thursday of about 294 Kakgold 4WD remote-controlled car toys. The lime green and blue stunt cars were sold on Amazon from July 2026 through September 2026 for $34 to $50.
The remote control holds button cell and lithium-ion batteries that children can easily reach, which CPSC called a deadly ingestion hazard. To get a refund, owners are asked to write "RECALLED" on the toy and email a photo of it being thrown away to kakrecall@outlook.com. No injuries were reported.
