First aid Made Aug 26, 2013, sent to the company Sep 4, 2013, published by CPSC Sep 25, 2013
The product, in the report: snake-shape snap armband
Our daughter got injured, cut finger, playing with a snake-shaped snap armband marketed by K&M International, Inc. We purchased this item in a ZOO in Kerzers, Switzerland; however, I found that a similar accident that occured in St. Louis MO has already been reported at www.saferproducts.gov, Report No. 20111110-59AB2-2147473466. The inner steel band cut through the outer fabric.
The manufacturer’s claims noted in the above mentioned report are apparently not true as the armband did not have any protective PVC sleeve that would prevent the steel band from cutting through the fabric.
I already contacted the seller and manufacturer as well as the Swiss Federal Consumer Affairs Bureau with no answer to date. I can provide pictures to support this claim.
Sincerely
[REDACTED]
