Item AA610
http://www.leevalley.com/garden/page.aspx?c=1&cat=2,44457,43764&p=43764
It's been pulled from their website, you can only find it by searching the item number.
We just got a letter in the mail that this child's garden set (cute little tote, spray bottle, gloves and metal painted tools) has, yeah you guessed it, lead in the paint on the tools. We got it in Canada, but they also sell their products in the US.
The letter said its a tool, not a toy, so not subject to recalls, but they wanted to warn their customers. They said its safe to use as a tool, but shouldn't be chewed on or put in the mouth. DD#1 has only used it properly, but we'll keep it away from DD#2 (and would have just due to the nature of the tools).
Kudos to the company for sending the letters and pulling the product, but I still think they should have the info on their website too.
