October 3, 2026 — A recent incident report details how an almost nine-month-old infant’s RaZbaby teething toy, identified as model 209-rs (RaZberry Spoon), reportedly split into small pieces while in use, creating a potential choking hazard. The manufacturer, RaZbaby Innovative Baby Products, has initiated an investigation into the matter.
Product Details
Incident Overview
On September 15, 2026, an incident was reported involving an almost nine-month-old infant. The infant, who had no teeth, was using a RaZbaby 209-rs teething toy when it split into pieces sized to be a choking hazard. The immediate concern focused on the potential for the infant to choke on the detached pieces.
Safety Concerns
The primary safety concern highlighted by this incident is the risk of choking.
- Immediate dangers: If a teething toy or any part of it breaks into small pieces, it can become lodged in an infant’s airway, leading to choking. Choking can quickly result in loss of consciousness, brain damage due to lack of oxygen, or even death if not immediately resolved.
- Long-term risks: While direct long-term physical risks beyond the immediate choking hazard are not evident from this report, the psychological impact on parents witnessing such an event can be significant.
- Who might be affected: Infants and toddlers who use teething toys are particularly vulnerable. Their airways are small, and their natural reflexes may not be sufficient to dislodge an object once it is aspirated. Children under three years old are at the highest risk for choking incidents.
- Property damage potential: There is no property damage potential associated with this specific incident.
What Consumers Should Do
If you own a RaZbaby 209-rs (RaZberry Spoon) teething toy, or any similar teething product, please take the following actions:

- How to check if they own the affected product: Verify the brand and model of your child’s teething toys. The product involved in this incident is the RaZbaby 209-rs, also known as the RaZberry Spoon. Visually inspect all teething toys regularly for any signs of degradation, splitting, or pieces that could break off.
