Warning Over Sale of Razor Sharp Fidget Spinners

Web vendors are cashing in on the biggest craze of 2017 by selling fidget spinners with razor sharp edges. 

 

Normal fidget spinners are round, plastic devices, which contain ball bearings to make them spin, and were originally invented to help aid concentration. 

 

However, a legal loophole means that potentially dangerous products such as sharp, metal fidget spinners, can make their way into the hands of children. 

 

The sharpened fidget spinners are available on eBay, and many contain blades that flick out as the device spins. 

 

Martin Grossman, MD of toy company H Grossman Ltd, said: 

 

"Selling these products as toys is an absolute disgrace in my opinion. These companies are based in the Philippines and selling these dangerous items as toys. They would never pass British Standard for toy safety standards. 

 

"This is one of the major problems with selling sites like eBay. They list products which would never pass our legislation. It's about time the government closed this dangerous trading loophole which allows other countries to bypass our stringent toy safety legislation." 

 

Ebay has vowed to remove all the dangerous spinners from its website. 

 

If you have been injured by a dangerous or defective product you may be entitled to compensation. Call our Oldham claims team on 0161 627 2469 to find out more.
