- Jun 18, 2026
- Company
- GOPO Toys LLC, of San Bernardino, California
- Product
- GOPO TOYS Pull String Teething Toys

- Hazard
- Choking
- Units
- About 70,410
- Remedy
- Consumers should stop using the teething toy immediately, take it away from children and contact GOPO Toys to receive a full refund. Consumers will be asked to destroy the toy by cutting all silicone strings and writing in permanent marker "DESTROYED" on the main body of the toy and send a photo of the destroyed toy to recalls@gopotoys.com. Consumers should then dispose of the destroyed product.
