The Pennsylvania Department of Health is warning the public about possible lead exposure from children’s stainless-steel cups.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled certain PandaEar, LAOION and Green Sprouts Stainless Steel Bottles and Cups because lead levels exceed the allowed amount.
The following information is directly from the Department of Health:
PandaEar eight-ounce Stainless Steel Toddler Cups, LAOION eight-ounce Children’s Cups, and Green Sprouts six-ounce and eight-ounce Stainless Steel Straw Bottles, Sippy Cups, and Sip & Straw Cups are being recalled. The PandaEar eight-ounce stainless steel toddler cup and the LAOION eight-ounce Children’s Cup lid can also break during use and expose children to sharp edges and small parts, which is a cut and choking hazard.
The PandaEar cups were sold online on Amazon.com from May 2023 through August 2023. The LAOION cups were sold online on Amazon.com from March 2023 through May 2023. The Green Sprouts Stainless Steel Straw Bottles, Sippy Cups, and Sip & Straw Cups were sold at Buy Buy Baby and Whole Foods stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com, buybuybaby.com, and bedbathandbeyond.com from January 2020 through September 2022.
The PandaEar cups came in sets of two and were pink and gray or blue and gray.
The LAOION cups were sold in sets of four.
Green Spout cups had tracking numbers 29218V06985, 35719V06985, and 33020V06985.
Anyone who has a child that drank from one of the cups should set up a doctor’s appointment to conduct a lead test.
