What is affected
Sloosh (Joyin US Corp.) — Sloosh Dive Sticks, models 40041, 40003 and 16154
Why it matters
The recalled dive sticks violate the federal dive sticks ban because they exceeded the compress limit, posing an impalement hazard. In shallow water, children may fall or land on a dive stick, resulting in serious piercing injuries. Facial and eye injuries are also possible when children attempt to retrieve the sticks underwater.

Florida relevance
This is a nationwide recall, not a Florida-specific incident. Because Central Florida pools are used much of the year and these toys were sold online by major retailers, local families should check Sloosh pool-toy sets and dive sticks before the next swim.
