Product & Safety
Does exposure to magnets or magnetic fields cause people harm?
No, according to the World Health Organization, exposure to static magnets has not been proven to have harmful (or positive) effects on people.
Are your clothes and magnets safety tested?
Yes. Our products go through a very thorough testing process, are independently safety tested by a consumer products safety testing bureau, and comply with all applicable children's product safety rules.
Is it possible that your magnets could fall out and pose a safety threat to my child?
We created an innovative, patented technology called SewSafe™ construction, where the magnets are sealed in a pouch, stitched into the product multiple times, and hidden between the layers of fabric—so that they are inaccessible to babies, toddlers, and children. It would take serious tampering to remove them. Periodically inspect seams and fabric near magnetic fasteners. If tears, rips, or loose stitching are found, contact us here.
Do Simply Magnetic Me products contain lead?
No—our products have been thoroughly tested and all of them meet lead safety standards.
Do your products contain any phthalates?
We do not have any phthalates in our products. Simply Magnetic Me products have been thoroughly tested and all of our products meet phthalate safety standards.
What about pacemakers? I heard magnets can interfere with them.
Our magnets are not strong enough to affect pacemakers. In fact, Magnetic Me is used in Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Units all around the country. If you do have a pacemaker, please consult with your physician first before use.
Does Simply Magnetic Me follow the children’s sleepwear flammability standards?
The Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) mandates that children’s sleepwear sizes 9 months and up to 6X is either tight-fitting or treated with flame retardants. Simply Magnetic Me follows the tight-fitting mandate so as not to use chemicals on our fabrics. This means that the fit on our larger sizes will be more snug than the fit on smaller sizes.
Will magnetic closures save me time?
Absolutely! Our magnetic fasteners practically close themselves. They're faster than snaps and zippers, and you'll be dressed in seconds.
Are your magnets considered health magnets?
Unfortunately, static magnets have been sold to consumers as therapeutic remedies since the dawn of time, but it has proved to be a junk pseudo-science. For more information, check out this article Magnets Provide Amusement, But Not Health Benefits and this article from PubMed.
