Incident Details
  • Incident Description: I purchased three sets of magnetic Fort play foam cushions (in the colors gulf, thistle, and cascade) from creactor [REDACTED] through his company Simulated Wood Grain Design LLC d/b/a FORT. They were intended for my 3.5 year old twins and eventually their baby brother who is currently 6 months. The 124 diametrical magnets (per Fort) are held in place by a glued patch. One patch in particular was open and frayed on my thistle Fort. The magnet itself is a choking hazard as it the size of a quarter. And the warning labels on the products only address the flammability, not the magnets.
