CPSC, KB Gear Announce Recall of Computer Mouse Sets
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The mouse ball can separate from the mouse and pose a choking hazard to young children.
What to do
The Cozy Coupe Computer Mouse was distributed by KB Gear under license from Little Tikes Co., of Hudson, Ohio. KB Gear liquidated and as of Nov. 1, 2001, is no longer in business. As a result, the company is unable to provide consumers with a remedy. To encourage consumers to destroy the computer mouse and as a gesture of goodwill, Little Tikes is offering an equivalent $10 Little Tikes toy to consumers who return the retaining ring from the bottom of the mouse.
